My Solo Trip to Japan

A few years ago I found something that I was truly passionate about, the Japanese language and Japan as a whole. This passion led me to teaching myself Japanese and to many fantastic people I doubt I would've met otherwise. Late last year I made the decision to make my dream come true and plan a trip to Japan the summer after my freshman year of college. I'm happy to say I depart for Tokyo this coming July 20 and will be traveling thoughout Japan until August 20. While in Japan I plan to visit many festivals, historical sites and landmarks and to photograph it all. I also plan to produce a digital photo album and coffee table book from the best of those photos.

Up till now, I've funded much of my trip with earnings from my job at Starbucks and with some help from my parents. However, I'm a little short of my goal which is why I've created this GoFundMe campaign. I'm looking to raise these last funds by offering you a copy of the book I plan to produce or even if you'd like to simply donate. The roughly 20 page book will cost me about $50 to produce and mail so, if you'd like a copy of the book I'm asking for a donation of at least $100. I will be forever grateful for anything you can do to help me with my goal.

I look forward to sharing my adventure with you.

Thank you all so much!
