In this video, I share a major update with you all. After years of incredible adventures and challenges—from cycling across Japan to rediscovering my love for sailing—I've set my sights on a new goal: sailing the length of Japan during Cherry Blossom season and then likely completely circling Japan by boat! I have already done it by bicycle, and I could well be the first person to follow the Cherry Blossoms, the length of Japan, by bike and boat.
This journey will take me to my final unexplored prefecture, Shimane, and allow me to see the coastal spots I've always dreamed of and, in many cases, where I have already cycled. I`m particularly looking forward to sailing past the towering granite cliffs where the Japanese Alps spill into the Sea and where, on an abandoned road, I discovered the story of an Englishman who is considered the father of mountaineering in Japan.
However, there’s a twist—my current boat, Wahine, is up for sale. Join me as I prepare for this exciting new adventure on Wahine or a new vessel. Thanks for being part of the Pacific Solo community—stay tuned for more updates!
