Nozaki, the Abandoned Island
Originally home of hidden Christians, wild deer now roam the place

A Hungarian in Japan (going on 3 years), researching rural tourism. I love living in a small town, discovering its history bit by bit.
I lived in Yamaguchi city for 2.5 years, and I still go there once a month for work. Now I live in Shimane, but often travel for research to Ojika island in Nagasaki Prefecture.
I am a lousy photographer and writer, but I never proclaimed any other way. Think of my photos as "showing that beautiful photos can be taken in that place".
:-) Hope you get an inspiration to visit the places I introduce, and I am looking forward to your own photos!
