But who really knows,

Philosophy

In the first week of March, I will head north on foot and with a backpack from the southernmost point of Kyushu, Cape Sata, to enjoy the spring in Japan with its overwhelming cherry blossoms on my way north.

The guiding symbol of this tour will be simplicity and minimalism in an over-excited and oversaturated time; this is also or especially possible in Japan! Moving slowly allows me to have intensive contact with nature and the people „along the way“ while maintaining my physical fitness and the experience. There will be no confrontation with nature according to the usual tried and tested motto – „The fight against steep mountains and a cruel nature“! From my point of view, there is no such thing, you just have to abide by its laws and try to form a unity with it – move to its rhythm!

Perhaps I will succeed in reaching the northernmost point of Japan on Hokkaido „Cape Soya“ with the „will without a specific conscious intention“; it is NOT a goal!
