@thewalkingfool@deborahjmantle@BooksOnAsia Great pics of those lovely walled streets! Since your visit, parts of Hagi have been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. And they have a new museum. Still a peaceful place to amble …
For the @BooksonAsia podcast, Amy Chavez got me talking about my career serving tea (and teaching English) in Japan, plus the day I initiated a game of chicken with a middle-aged man (awkward!). Find lots of great interviews and book reviews on the BOA website.

This seaside shrine in #Yamaguchi is one of the 31 most beautiful places in Japan … according to CNN anyway! What’s your favorite scenic spot?
