Read MoreContinuing my NYC adventure, I walked from Staten Island Ferry, to Brooklyn Bridge, back across, and to Grand Central Station.
Read MoreI spent most of my whirlwind week in Japan north of Tokyo in a place called Tsukuba. It's known as Tsukuba Science City; a planned science park developed in the 1960s. Though many of the buildings indeed date back 50 years, the buildings of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) are comparatively modern.

Read MoreThe autumn colours have all but disappeared from central Tokyo, though some remains aloft. Most leaves have long since fallen, and the weather's turned much colder this week. It really feels as though winter is coming.
And so, with that in mind, it was nice to stumble upon such a rare and distinctive looking out-house in one of the suburbs here in Tokyo. A welcome splash of colour amongst the grey-blue concrete of the neighbourhood.
This striking red building really stood out down the backstreets of Bunkyo, as I walked to meet Charlotte in Akihabara (click the photo for fullscreen). If it weren't for the メヂィアミクス研究所 laminated sign above the postbox, one may not expect this photo to have been taken in Japan. Incidentally, メヂィアミクス研究所 reads as "media mix laboratory" which is the name of this cute little company. When framing this shot, I didn't really care what this building was, I just wanted the photo. Now I can't help but wonder what's inside, behind closed doors.
