I know, I know, I’ve been super quiet lately and you probably think I’ve given up on Haikugirl’s Japan, but I’m still here! I’m a strong believer in not writing for the sake of it, and that’s why this year I made the conscious decision to only post when I actually had something to say. … Continue reading
Happy New Year! 明けましておめでとうございます。 So it’s 2017 already and I haven’t been around for a while. It’s been over a month since I blogged and I won’t lie, I feel a bit bad for that. I’ve been very busy over the last month. I spent nearly 3 weeks travelling in Indo-China, then it was Christmas … Continue reading
Welcome to 2016! It’s hard to believe 2015 is over already – it absolutely flew by! Haikugirl’s Japan has now been running for 8 years and 7 months, and I’ve written a total of 1,318 posts! In 2015 my blog was viewed about 180,000 times, and overall Haikugirl’s Japan has been viewed around 775,000 times! That’s quite mad, isn’t it? … Continue reading

It seems to be affecting older images (I think images pre-2010, but I’m not completely sure) and at the moment all recent images seem to be … Continue reading
Exactly a year ago my lovely cousin Emily came to interview me as part of a project she was doing, and for some reason it’s taken me this long to share the interview here (sorry Emily!). Haikugirl’s Japan has been around for about 8 years now, so you probably already know everything you need to … Continue reading
Welcome to 2015! It’s hard to believe 2014 is over already – what a year it was! Haikugirl’s Japan has now been running for 7 years and 7 months, and I’ve written a total of 1,205 posts! In 2014 my blog was viewed about 120,000 times, and overall Haikugirl’s Japan has been viewed around 596,400 times! In 2014 I … Continue reading
Another year is drawing to a close, and it’s hard to believe I’m sat here again trying to find the words to sum it all up. 2013 has flown by, and it has been an absolute whirlwind of awesomeness. Haikugirl’s Japan has now been running for 6 years and 7 months, and I’ve written a … Continue reading
About a week ago Ramata from the wonderful lovelycomplex: Nihon in London tagged me in the ‘End of year tag game!‘ (年末タッグゲーム!) and I promised I would respond – sorry it’s taken me so long, Rama-chan! To play the game, I have to respond to a set of questions. So, here goes… 今年の一番よかった事何ですか。kotoshi no ichiban … Continue reading
