My Name is Marco I’m from Tacoma Washington. I have so many hobbies and loves and when I was in high school I fell in love with Japanese culture. Six years later I moved to Matsumoto Japan to chase my dreams of becoming a DJ, Artist, Gamer, and creative content producer. Because I studied Digital technology and culture at my college at Washington State University I decided to start a blog and business. Maruko in Matsumoto will document the journey of my life here. The struggles, slip ups, and stories may help other expats and young kids to realize their full potential. Every story is important and interesting, it is up to tell it in a way that resonates with those around us. Like a dance that we play, moving in harmony with one another. That harmony pushes and pulls, future and past come together to form the present, white and black need each other to exist, but there are so many shades of grey. “You’re Life is Like a Movie so act like the hero in it” -Joe Rogan
