“November was the perfect time to travel in Fukushima prefecture. The weather was capricious enough, foggy, raining and snowy with occasional sharp sun beams too. Fukushima showed me varying landscapes: mountains, forests, plains and fields, seashore.
I could catch a glimpse of the everyday life of the country people. I followed the migrating seabirds to the lakes of Inawashiro and Numazawa and came to know miraculous holy and historical sites."

Pentti, like many before him and many to come, was captivated by Japan's landscape and people.
I visited myself two years ago for the first time and can’t wait to return.
It is truly one of the most magical places on earth and Pentti shows us it’s beauty like the true master he is.
