a happy new year!

I'm back from 2 1/2 weeks travel to Japan! hitting 6+ cities in such a short time.
I hit Osaka, Takamatsu, Naoshima (new design-y island off the coast of Takamatsu), Ohshima (country side island with awesome nature and seafood), Tokyo, Kyoto, and Kobe.
it was great times- lots of design, architecture, trend research, reading, eating, and most importantly relaxing. it was so nice to be back home! I should do that more often...
