My name is Ryne, really pronounced Rhine. I enjoy reading works of all sorts and am heavily interested in informative and persuasive writing. Before moving to Japan and attending ASIJ, I lived in Chicago for 14 years. While there isn't a whole lot of sightseeing to do, I would recommend giving Chicago a visit for its welcoming community and deep-dish pizza. My passion is in speaking, and I love hearing and entertaining unfamiliar ideas.
