It’s Summer and you can feel it. Not just in the super humid air, but in the whole carnival atmosphere as the yearly Yamgasa Festival gets underway in Fukuoka this week. It’s nice, it’s great, but it’s not good for working as all the coffee shops are full!
In my break I was reading in Fast Company about the new super aerotropoli that are springing up around the World, from Dubai to Bangkok. Whole cities grown around airports because people need to travel. On the subway back I was thinking that that’s just what Fukuoka is, I spend a lot of time here because it’s so convenient, being as close to Seoul and Shanghai as Tokyo. And funnily enough this month’s Newsweek has chosen Fukuoka as one of the Worlds Most Dynamic Cities. It’s nice to find something in Japan that’s part of and looking into the future!
