I am a 30 year old engineer from Manchester, UK.

I love traveling and being a keen anime/manga fan I was fascinated by the idea of going to Japan in particular. After much anticipation and planning, I spent 3 months there in early 2010 - and boy was I not disappointed! This fantastic country has so much to offer - in so many ways I was just not expecting and now I hope to share that with others thinking of doing the same.

Please check out my Blurb book of my Japan travels in 2010.
