Heading to Tokyo for a 3-day trip, and the itinerary is basically a highlight reel of my favourite things! 🇯🇵✈️
Day 1: Diving right into the Traveler’s Notebook 20th Anniversary official event. (Stationery lovers, you already know how special this is!) 📓
Day 2: Stepping into the classroom! I have the distinct honour of giving a talk to the students at the reputable Keio University (慶應義塾大学) about connecting with customers and bridging brand ethos. Fun fact: Keio’s logo is a cross of fountain pen nibs, symbolising "the pen is mightier than the sword." As an analogue fan, I love that detail so much. 🖋️
Day 3: Unplugging to go cycling through rural Tokyo on a Brompton with my dear Indonesian TN friend. 🚲
I love all the serendipity happening in my life. It tells me things are good and to just be quiet in moments of appreciation. A secondary bestie who went abroad just shared with me his feelings on some song lyrics, and we clicked once again, just like that. With such a full itinerary, there’s really only one blank page left in this notebook I'm wishing I could fill.
