life outside the viewfinder

Whilst I staying with Raina in Japan and knowing that I enjoy photography, she gave me a DIY kit for a twin reflex film camera for my birthday.

Arriving back in Tokyo, Raina took me out to this authentic restaurant for our final dinner together before I returned to London.

Day 8 and we spent our final day in Hokkaido visiting picturesque Otaru before catching our evening flight back to Tokyo.

Day 7 and my actual birthday spent travelling to check out Japan’s most popular zoo in Asahikawa City before having a lot of fun with the weather which changed our plans to end up … being styled by Raina in Comme Ca. :D

Day 6 split between going to Raina’s school to help her with her English language classes and then heading up to Sapporo for my birthday weekend she had kindly planned out.
