TOKY Friday 5: Travel Destinations

Friday Five

In this week’s TOKY Friday 5, we’re covering a few of our favorite places to visit around the globe.

 

Lawra, Ghana

It’s not your usual travel destination. The people, the music, the smells, it’s a place that I’ll always be longing to go back to. The people of Ghana are so welcoming, they all make you feel like you’re family. Here is a film shot I took back in ’09.

Kyoto, Japan

Some cities humble through sheer numbers—in Kyoto it’s time and tradition. The ancient capital’s wealth of temples, shrines, and artisans practicing centuries-old techniques serve as a reminder of our relative insignificance, while its cuisine serves as man’s best (and tastiest) proof of a higher power.

Los Angeles, USA

My favorite city to travel to is LA. A great friend from college lives there so it is nice to spend time with her. There is a new adventure around every corner, the food choices are amazing, and you can’t beat relaxing on the beach.

Tokyo, Japan

It’s the future of today. Everything there is modern and different over there, the culture is art-influenced and the architecture is unique like another. People there even dress up as large animals or crazy creatures, and nobody blinks an eye at them.
