Inhalt:

Mimi considers herself to be TJ-a typical Japanese person. At thirty years old, she has earned a master's degree in social work and has been making coffee for eight years at Doutor, a Japanese chain of coffee houses. She's sure she could get a better job if she tried, but she still wonders if she's wasting her life. Having saved enough money, Mimi embarks on a vacation to Paris, France-a holiday that turns her life upside down. While experiencing France's art and culture, she meets Eddie, a Frenchmen enamored with all things Japanese. Though from different cultures and different worlds, the two fall in love, and Eddie returns with Mimi to Japan. But what promises to transform her life is her contact with all things Chinese. This growing dragon of a country threatens to swallow up its Asian neighbors, like Japan. Could China be the source of opportunity and fulfillment that Mimi is looking for? Mimi Tokyo Paris follows Mimi as she makes her life choices against the backdrop of her relationships; her story provides an introspective look at the Japanese culture and way of life.
