Shinjuku Travel Blogs

Photos that I had took during my stay in Japan.

This trip was totally out of the blue, whilst on my Working Holiday Visa in New Zealand, I needed to get away from windy Wellington so I chose this strange combination. I was spoilt with beautiful deserted Motu in the South Pacific and amazed at the Japanese culture, its a Country like no other I've ever witnessed, a place I fell in love with and hope to return very soon.

Visited the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the Big Buddha of Kamakura, Akihabara (Electric Town), Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, Roppongi and drank all the awamori we could find.

I decided to come to Japan to teach English back in 2003. I intended to stay only a year but a year has turned into almost 6 years I left on 9 November 2008. I've learnt much about the customs and culture of Japan so id like to share some of my knowledge with you. I hope my experiences can help other people travelling to Japan. I will slowly be adding my photos, tips and reviews.

A few photos of my time living in Tokyo between 2006-2007. Again, lots of pics missing due to a busted laptop and a few new ones of my trip back in July
