  1. I did a little of the Kumano Kodo in fall one year – Mt Koya in Wakayama was especially beautiful with lots of bright red Autumn leaves. The winter looks beautiful too but I'm probably too lazy to slog through hiking in the snow…

  2. When everywhere else in the world is going astray, Currently Hannah uploads something where i can find peace.. Thank you very much..

  3. It's great to the the colours without any colour grading. Rarely you get to this awesome places with its natural colours, not with someone else imaginative beauty standard.

  4. Woah, I did a cycling trip planned with help from your videos in Wakayama, Nara and Mie and visited Binshiyama and had a lovely time in Owase, Genuinely one of the nicest parts of the ride between there and Kumano Hongu Taisha. Thanks for the inspiration to visit such a gorgeous region!

  5. The footage of Magome-juku in the morning snow was absolutely stunning!! So lucky to see it like that!!
