I was born and raised in Barcelona, Spain but I grew up in a multicultural family with a Catalan dad and a Japanese mom. I therefore consider myself neither one nor the other, but both.
My whole family: dad, mom, and both sisters. I'm the middle one.
My parents met while studying college in Washington, U.S. which is why I grew up speaking four languages: English, Japanese, Spanish, and Catalan.
My parent's wedding was celebrated in a Japanese temple close to Mount Fuji.
My dad's last name is Pitxot. That side of the family consists of a line of artists, from painters to writers.
My dad as a baby, my grandmother, and my grandfather.
My parents chose this name based on the Japanese character, the child, from the Ghibli movie "My Neighbor Totoro."
Myself on the age of one.
