Experience the landscapes of Japan on foot

いらっしゃい!

40 years after living in Japan as a student, I have become a regular wanderer on the old trails of Japan, seeking out the historic ‘uramichi’ of mountains and forests, staying in rural villages, farmstays, onsen hot springs inns and temples.

I document my travels in Japan to share with like-minded walkers who are seeking insight into the culture and landscapes of rural Japan.
