For our fourth day attending the Setouchi Triennale 2019 (which was really our third day, remember, I twisted the timeline a little) we returned to Shodoshima. We had to, we had left the car there two days prior. We hopped on the ferry to Ikeda Port on the morning of […]

These days, I’m celebrating a very special anniversary. That is the 10th anniversary of my first visit to Japan. And more precisely, last week was the 10th anniversary of my first visit to Ogijima! In case you missed it back then, here is the tale of my very first visit […]

Another day on Ogijima? Sure, why not? Last Saturday, Team Ogi was supposed to bring its new artwork for the Setouchi Triennale 2019 to Ogijima. However, they were behind schedule, and we ended up being 24 hours early. Rest assured, Team Ogi did bring its art on the following day. […]
Yesterday, the weather was wonderful. My friend M had to go to Shodoshima for various matters and she invited our common friend W and me to go with her on the island for a fun day. We hadn’t planned anything, and just winged it for the whole day. This is […]
