Patricia 0rmsby

Patricia Ormsby is an environmental and health activist living Fujinomiya, Japan. She obtained her bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Colorado in 1981 and studied Linguistics at the University of Michigan Graduate School before moving to Japan in 1984, where she has worked since as a language teacher and translator of Japanese and Russian technical documents. She hang glides and climbs mountains and has led several ecotours to Siberia, Canada and the United States. She is among the first foreigners in Japan to obtain qualifications as a Shinto priest. She is unashamed to admit that electromagnetic fields have an adverse impact on her health, and therefore chooses to live rurally. Her dream is to organize an ecovillage.
