Where We Call Home

Two-Wheelers Like None Other (4x9)

: 29, 2023

This time we visit Toyonaka in Osaka Prefecture to meet Gerson Aisawa Hara, a third-generation Brazilian of Japanese descent. Passionate about cycling, he's an artisan who crafts unique bicycles. Each of his creations is one-of-a-kind, custom-made for its rider with unusual materials such as wood and bamboo. We tag along with Gerson as he develops a cargo bicycle capable of carrying large baggage with ease. Later on, we drop by a hot-spring inn in Okayama Prefecture where Nepalese Thapa Magar Kumar attends guests.
