` National Museum of Ethnology ` in English is located in Leiden, Netherland. People had introduced me to the others during my stay, and this is how I met Mr. Andrew Thompson & Ms. Sydney Thomson , the restorators. They gave me advice and information about paper and some studies about Rembrandt. I appreciate their support even for our first time meeting !

It's also surprising that Sydney visited our Echizen Washi Village in 1993, when I graduated my high school !

It seems that there are not enough information about our paper and Washi itself in Europe, which we have to feel responsible for. I'll keep wroking hard on this matter and hopefully go back again next year.
