Reached my last stop in Japan - Tokyo! Amazing views from the 450m-high Skytree tower with clear visibility to Mount Fuji over 100km away. Enjoying the contrast of tradition and order during the day, with the vibrant and non-stop nightlife.

Beautiful red Japanese maples in Kyoto. Feeling very Zen...

Really enjoying Japan so far. Surprised to see how popular Xmas is here! Including a massive display of various santas in Fukuoka...

Very excited - on my way to Fukuoka in Japan (first time), for the 3R+3C conference. Really looking forward to meeting old and new colleagues. Quite amusingly, saw a store at the Seoul airport called MCM. I'm sure I'll hear more about MCMs during the conference 😂
