ありがとうございました！

After four years, I've decided for various reasons that I will not be posting on this blog any more.

Thank you so much to everyone who's followed me and enjoyed my posts over the years. It's been interesting and fun.

my most popular posts - my own photos from Tokyo + Fukui prefecture

Thank you!!!!
