You are awesome! I just started reading maybe, 4 or 5 months ago. I'm a Big Issue Newbie. Honestly I had seen the mags around for a long time, but the cheesy celebrity pictures on the cover turned me off. The content itself is much more interesting than the cover makes them out to be. I guess the large celebrity faces are important to make the mags highly visible and recognizable to as many passerby as possible though. Deas - Yeah I don't think you'll be able to find them outside of Tokyo or Osaka, I guess they're in Nagoya too (I'm sure there is a list of the cities covered on their homepage... I should check that). Heather! You should start handing out suits and iPods to all the homeless to get them started! Well. Maybe not iPods... Chris! You are awesome!

It's a great way to learn the language, I've been reading since about January of this year. Wow, I’ve been doing the same thing (reading Big Issue to study Japanese)!
