Eastern Hokkaido.

Japan

 

On Assignment.

In Fall 2018, editor and writer, Kelly Phillips Badal and I received an assignment from Hokkaido Tourism and Tokyo-based Wondertrunk Agency to explore one the of more remote corners of the world — Shiretoko Peninsula in Japan’s Eastern Hokkaido.

End of Land.

The word “shiretoko” translates to “End of Land.” Our objective was to create a magazine from our explorations. Kelly wrote the world and I supplied the photographs. The magazine, the 6th in the series, was designed by Wondertrunk in Tokyo and printed by Faenza Group in Italy.

Sample Pages.

Travel + Adventure Show

After the magazine was published in Spring 2019, Kelly and I were invited as guest speakers to debut the magazine and share our experiences at the 2019 Los Angeles Travel + Adventure Show. The magazine is currently being distributed at tourism board branches throughout Japan and at travel trade shows all over the world.
