When did you start blogging about Japan and why did you start?
I actually started a blog in the first instance as a way of keeping in touch with friends back home in Australia. I was easier than an email which often promotes responses and more work. I liked the idea of getting out a story and some pictures at the press of a button. Living in Japan my writing obviously had a Japanese flavor to it, after a few months i realized what an interest many people had in Japan and what an interesting place it was to live and write about. I then decided to broadcast my blog a little more and get it out into the greater public. I like the idea of seeing and doing things on the weekend to then later post a story about it. The desire to write interesting stories often gets me out and about on the weekend rather than staying at home which is another big bonus.
