Japan 2016 – Unpacking My Travel Journal – Final Part
The final day of my second trip to Japan. I was sad to be leaving having felt like I had only scraped the surface of things to see and photograph in this amazing country. But I was more glad that I would soon be back with my kids and my pets. I was not looking…Read more

Hiroshima 2016
On my last trip to Japan, I took a Shinkansen from Kyoto to Hiroshima on the International Day of Peace. Such a humbling and highly emotional experience.
