Retracing my journey of 2024 one year later

+365 JAPAN DIARY

Im January 2024, a year ago, I went to Japan for a 4-week journey…

It was what I would call an “experiential research journey”, very inspirational, very enriching and nourishing. Now, in January 2025, my memories are still fresh.

It’s impressions I feel like sharing now, 365 days later, but not just that… I’ll try to also share images of moments and memories which touched me and which have had an impact on my life and on my work; and of encounters with people I am deeply grateful to have met.

So, join me in retracing my Japan experience of January 2024 in my +365 JAPAN DIARY.

This is the web version of a series of posts which I have also published on Instagram and Facebook.

9 January

still in Tokyo

There was another very special event that day, but with the pictures and memories only in my head. It simply didn’t feel at all appropriate to take any pictures:
Alice and I had the honour to have an appointment with Hiroyuki Noguchi, son of Haruchika Noguchi (founder of Seitai), and founder of the Shintai Kyoiku Kenkyusho (‘Body Education Research Institute’). It was an extraordinary and deeply touching meeting and we are grateful for this encounter. 🙇🏻‍♀️
(Again, it wouldn’t have happened without my friend Nami’s support.)
