The Hidden Paths of Kyoto

We wandered off the guidebook route and into Kyoto's quiet corners: moss gardens at dawn, a tea maker's back room, and a conversation we didn't expect. Come along for the whole unscripted day.

Hi, I'm Debra

I've always been curious about what's around the corner. And lately, I've been wondering what's around the next corner, too.

A little adventure? Absolutely. Trying something I've never done before? Why not. An unexpected opportunity? Now you've got my attention

I believe there's always more to explore—in the world, in our own backyards, and in the chapters of life we haven't written yet. Some experiences will be wonderful. Others might make for better stories than memories - more about that later!

Either way, I'd rather find out than wonder.

Come along. Let's see what happens.
