Hello,
I have been enjoying hiking with the group
for nearly two years and truly enjoy meeting new hikers as well as talking
weekly with the 'regulars'. I also like to lead as long as it isn't in
Kincaid park as I tend to get lost.....

FAQ about the Fearless
Leader.
What do I call you?
I am notorious for having many different nicknames. In
this hiking group and other places most people call
me "Toshi." However, among my friends and
co-workers, I am known as "Hamachan." There may be
other nicknames floating around, which I am not responsible. Some
call me using different nicknames depending on social
situation.
Where does "Hamachan" come from?
The nickname, "Hamachan", is my original Japanese
nickname. It derives from "Hama" (from first 2 syllables of my
last name) + "chan" (Japanese conventional surfix for names).
This Japanese naming convention can also applied to non-Japanese. For
instance, a name "Ginger" becomes "Ginger-chan" or more shorter to
"Gin-chan".
What is your dog's name?
My dog's name is Sheba. She is a Malamute-Husky
mix.
How long have you been in Alaska?
I have been in Alaska since 2001. I came here by
chance. I just happened to got a job at the Alaska Department of Fish
& Game. I am a Biometrician of the AYK Commercial Fisheries
Division. I have never thought about living in Alaska. Many
friends told me that I am very much suited for Alaska. They were
absolutely right. I have been enjoying living here.
What is your favorite hike?
Every hike brings wonders of nature. I love every
hikes.
