My dear friend Akane is a young professional living in Tokyo. She's also a fencer and an experienced traveller who's been to over 66 countries. We meet up in Shinjuku to have a chat about her experiences as an exchange student in Alaska and Illinois, her high school life in Japan, her career in Tokyo, the desire to live in Europe and her love of fencing. I also try to plug my home country of Slovenia consistently and whenever I can.
