Japanophiles: Thomas Bertrand (2019x2)

Ausstrahlung: Jan 29, 2019

This time on Japanophiles, French national Thomas Bertrand details how he decided to think outside the box in his quest to introduce Japanese culture to a global audience. Like many others before him, Bertrand first visited Japan for a sightseeing trip, but he eventually moved to Kyoto and started working in Osaka. During his long commute, Bertrand would brainstorm ideas for his blog, which he started writing back in 2005. He spent hours writing each post about what he found unique about everyday life in Japan, and as the years passed his readership grew to 800-1,000 views per post.
