About


On a Floating Bridge is a website with information about 3 topics, and surprising intersections between them. Please subscribe to the RSS if you are interested in Japan, Environmental Issues and Art. The bridges between them weave my life together here in Tokyo.


Below are photos mostly from Japan and my overland journey from Bristol to Tokyo, plane free. I don't update them that often.

A do it yourself gingerbread house that my family sent me. It arrived in shreds and it took a serious investment of time and icing sugar to bring it to this state. To me it's beautiful at least!
