This personal project marks the completion of the third round of my travel vlogs. Last summer, I explored the Seto Inland Sea (near Hiroshima) and recently finished releasing seven episodes on YouTube. It’s a gratifying feeling to mark the end of 2023.
I started creating travel videos during the pandemic for a couple of reasons. First of all, I wanted to support Japan’s tourism industry, which suffered from international travel restrictions. Secondly, my unique qualifications, stemming from my adventurous solo travel experiences since my teenage years and proficiency in two languages, made me well-suited for this project. Lastly, I wanted to help non-Japanese travelers in discovering hidden gems in the countryside.
