Lito's mini worlds on single leaves...

It's incredible how Japan produces so many of these esoteric creatives who are masters of their field. Some become mainstream, of course. However, the country continues to amaze me as I've not seen another country that's allowed for such varied creatives so much freedom to pursue their dreams. It's in their philosophy of the shokunin and Ikigai. The more I learn about Japan, the more I am motivated to save even more money to spend a meaningful amount of time traveling and soaking in everything.
