Featured Artist

Thank you to Michaela Phillip for providing our logo. Michaela is a second-year OkiJET from Trinidad and Tobago.

So this design is special to me as it feels like I was able to combine Okinawan culture with my own.”

Please check out our recently updated pages on Urasoe, Okinawa Trivia, Okinawa`s Wildlife, and Transportation to gain more insight on life in Okinawa.
