    Journey to Japan

    The culture, food, nature, media and language of Japan fascinate and inspire me already since my childhood (i.e. my homepage's title font came from a book about Japan). In 2023 I started to learn Japanese and finally traveled to Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Kamakura and Yokohama to experience it myself and make my dream come true.
