Letters from Chichijima - Cartas desde Chichijima

(Lee esta entrada en español en "Comentarios", al pie)


This is where I begin to tell the story of my time in Chichijima, Ogasawara Islands, Japan. I was there from March 9th to May 20th, 2007 and during that time I worked as WWOOFer for the first time in my life. Since this happened some time ago, what I’m writing here is a recollection of the events at the time, seen through the lens of time. It might lack the freshness of an everyday dairy, but it is rich in insight on the meaning of each event and how they each led to the next, bringing me to the present moment. I consider my time in Chichijiima as one of the most life changing experiences I’ve been through and my greatest journey so far. I hope it is useful to anyone interested in Japan, in WWOOFing or in visiting an amazing National Park in Far South East Asia.
