One of my favorite experiences in Japan thus far. We followed this road to Kawaguchi Asama Shrine, nestled among beautiful tall trees at the base of Mt. Fuji. The sun was starting to set and there were only a handful of other travelers on the grounds.

By just existing in the space you could understand why this site was chosen to house a shrine. Nature & spirituality peacefully coexist in this corner of the world.

Took a day trip into Kobe and right before the sun set it started to rain so we decided to head back home. On our way back I was captivated by the text and facade of the Shin-Kobe station at the base of the mountains and grabbed a photo before running to catch my train.

Some snapshots from this past week in my new home.
It’s fitting that the prevailing pop of color in all the images mirrors the Japanese flag.
