Hi. I'm Haru, thank you for visiting me here. I'm a global nomad and sociolinguist who loves thinking and writing about how people talk and listen across cultures. Growing up, Japan was my anchor so I have written much about communicating in Japanese, which feels so different from communicating in English. I currently live in London where I've been writing a new book on our listening intelligence. I'm excited to announce that 聴くKIKU The Japanese Art of Good Listening has been released in the UK in March 2025, and will be available in the US in October 2025 alongside translations. I hope you enjoy the book and delight in the experience of becoming reattuned to your expansive practice of listening.
