At the moment our friend and colleague from The Hague - Eelco Borremans is travelling Asia.
Just last night he sent his first report:
“ok, after a struggling for a moment in tokyo i found my way. tokyo is a maze. if you walk through the city you do not know where you are. it’s bigger than you can imagine. beijing and shanghai were big but this is out of the ordinary. the people. the way the structures are build. the metro system. the amount of people around. the lights. it’s confusing.
that’s a first time for me to feel lost in a city. and i mean really lost. there is no point to focus on. absolutely not. but i found some italian people who were at the same hostel for the night in the place i was staying at. and now we are staying in a basement hostel somewhere in tokyo. don’t ask me where because i don’t know yet but i will found out.
and as slow the beginning was as fast it will grow in to an exciting time. sorry that there are no pictures yet. that’s how confusing it was to arrive in the city. but tomorrow my journey will begin. and the italians are joining. so let the fun begin. it’s pretty late up here so i will write tomorrow.
cheers from tokyo,
eelco”
Great to hear news from our friend - now waiting for some pictures…
