Overview

During my sabbatical, I visited several places in Japan to expand my knowledge and experiences, as well as for fun 🥳 .

Notable visits included Okinawa, Kyoto, Tsushima, and other locations I had been interested in exploring.

Travel to Okinawa

Okinawa was one of the destinations I wanted to visit but hadn’t had the chance to explore yet. It’s a place rich in historical significance, with a unique blend of diverse cultures and ongoing cultural movements. For Japanese people, understanding the various aspects of Okinawa’s past and present is crucial for shaping future perspectives.

I also try to enjoy the southern island atmosphere ☀️.

Travel to Kyoto

🗓️ June 11th

📷 202406 Kyoto - https://photos.app.goo.gl/yh2aRmazhFTyn4W2A

The biggest purpose for this visit was to go to 虚空蔵法輪寺 電電宮, a temple that enshrines deities of electricity, communications, and technology.

I absolutely had to purchase their “SD-card charm” to empower my future work, which is definitely connected to these fields.
