Finally getting around to documenting this trip. Fifteen packed days, so I’m splitting it into three posts — here’s the first. https://colly.com/journal/return-to-tokyo-part-1
Return to Tokyo, Part 1

I’ve split this summary across three posts, and this roundup details the first five days. Highlights included lots of sumo, a studio session, and getting to know Ryōgoku.

Here’s part two: serenity at Sakamoto Library, lemonade at Lambert, feeling Karuizawa, and tripping with no clothes on. https://colly.com/journal/return-to-tokyo-part-2
Return to Tokyo, Part 2

Days 6 to 10 brought several trip highlights, including an outstanding café, trippy outdoor bathing in Karuizawa, and a perfect few hours at Sakamoto Library.

@colly Will be devouring (and re-devouring) these as we just booked our first trip to Japan at the end of June.

@colly Cheers mate! Just starting to roughly plan and will hit you up as soon as it starts to feel overwhelming (which I imagine is a real thing).
