Zev is a first-year ALT (Assistant Language Teacher) in Iyo City, Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku, Japan. He hails from the lovely city of Portland, Oregon, and has had a lifelong connection to Japan inherited from his mom, who was an ALT herself some thirty years ago. He attended Japanese immersion elementary school in Portland and has been studying Japanese off-and-on ever since (heavy emphasis on the off, as his Japanese is not great). Zev’s primary interest is cuisine (as documented on his personal food/travel blog, zeveatsit.com), but he also has a burning passion for music, movies, sports, prestige TV, and recreationally reading Wikipedia. He thinks that The Sopranos is the pinnacle of creative fiction, the Grateful Dead are the greatest American rock n’ roll band ever, and Deni Avdija will be an All-Star this season. He has many other strong opinions and enjoys discussing them – if you want to hear more, subscribe to his blog!
