Meet and share
After several days on the road, I want this rest day to be about more than physical recovery and laundry 😅.
I hope to meet some local residents, share stories and talk about the people who helped us go further. With permission, I may also record a few individual conversations for Japan 2027.
If you would like to take part or help make it happen, write to me at contact@wtft.life.

What stayed with me
Walking creates time for ordinary moments to become questions.
After I arrive, I will share insights from this part of the journey that challenged an assumption, changed how I saw something or revealed a possibility I had not considered.

Through local eyes
I am looking for someone local who can help me see beyond a visitor's first impression, ideally a bilingual content creator who shares the desire to celebrate the people who believed in us.
