Name: Austin Corbett

Age: 22

Hometown: Calgary, the Texas of Canada.

Hokkaido Hometown: Shikaoi-cho, a lovely town of five and half thousand at the foot of Daisetsuzan National Park. Renowned for the Shikaribetsu Lake Ice Village, and for being the only place you can get a Caesar in Japan. Has a serious Canada fetish.

University/Major: I received a Bachelor of Music in Composition from McGill University. Not particularly useful in my day to day life, but I can compose a nice ditty for you if you like.

Hobbies: Squash, Drinking (preferably when Karaokeing,) Onsens, and Snowboarding. Life is simple when you live in the middle of nowhere!

Why JET?: Now that I’m here I can’t really remember….it’s fun though!

Why the HAJET PC?: Because I’m a loudmouth, having my own magazine will keep my friends friendly. Also, I’ve always enjoyed creating media for others to read and watch.
