Asaki, our Japanese guide with a Mediterranean soul, is warm, cheerful and fluent in Spanish, revealing authentic Japan beyond the tourist sights. Photographer and editor Ariadna Arnés leads a creative workshop on observing and narrating each experience visually. Together, they make the trip a cultural and artistic immersion, combining local insight with an aesthetic eye.
