On the 11th of April, 2014, I boarded my flight to Tokyo – completely alone and having never before left Europe nor been on a flight of more than 3 hours – to begin my adventure of a lifetime in Japan. And so, here is my travel journal, written whilst in Japan and accompanied by just some of the 4000+ photographs that I took on my camera and iPhone. Previously in website form and now, after much hard work, book form.
