Eiko Kadono Profile I was born in the old part of Tokyo. In 1960, when I was 25 years old, I've spent 2 years in Brasil as emigrant. Based on my experience at that time, I've written a nonfiction story "Brazil and My Friend Luizinho" about a brazilian boy who loves dancing samba, and this became my maiden work in 1970. My career as a writer has started like this, and after 7 years of writing by myself, my books got to be published. [My hobby] I love listening to brasilian music alone in dancing (I don't want anyone to see me!) [Journey] - Shipped across the oceans for two months to Brasil; it was the journey which went halfway around the grobe. - A long time ago, I've driven a little 4CV of Citroen in Europe for 9000km. - I made a trip to see a witch to Roumania and Germany. [My favorite things to eat] - "Ojako"(dried japanese anchovy frys) - rice - japanese pickles - fried "Okoze"(stonefish) - smelly cheese [My passion] - My dog called KAYA(ShihTzu) - Drawing : here's my drawings!
