Destination guides, Itineraries, & Regional Japan
Travel Writing
As a Japan-based travel writer, I specialise in destination guides, itineraries and regional travel. Currently based near Kyoto, I write about both well-known destinations and lesser-travelled regions of Japan, with a particular interest in helping English-speaking travellers discover places beyond the usual tourist trail. Here are some of my travel stories:
