Given that my most memorable appearance in Japanese news media to date involved a bizarre street interview regarding my thoughts on wrapping paper, I was honoured and surprised to be asked for an interview by the Japan Times, a major English-language newspaper based in Tokyo.

I would like to thank Hokkaido-based journalist Kris Kosaka for shaping my dull everyday life into a colourful and positive story and Damien Pitter for pulling off some serious photographic wizardry.  You can read the full story here – which appeared on February 1, 2013 – on the Japan Times website.
