About Fred Tranfield

Fred lives in Japan with his wife, Lilly and two small children. A dedicated eclecticholic, he is busy writing some books, learning Japanese, teaching yoga classes and workshops, and keeping his noses attuned to the ever coursing rains of technology... when he's not cooking lemon bars and pizza for his family.

He likes to read books to his children and play with them in the many wonderful parks in Japan. He works at a medium sized public junior high school as an ALT or assistant language teacher. Occasionally he teaches English to the kids. Mostly he just gets to clean the front steps with them in the afternoons. He sometimes does yoga to wake them up in class.

And, yes, he CAN use chopsticks.
