Dried seafood, known as "himono" in Japan, is a time-honored way of preserving the ocean's bounty. These delicacies are carefully dried to extend their shelf life, after removing the innards and gills.

Japan has embraced the art of drying fish for centuries. Traditionally, there are two methods: the natural simplicity of sun drying and the more controlled approach of machine drying. The process starts with fish being meticulously cleaned, then soaked in a blend of sea salt and water before being left to dry under the sun’s warm rays. The result is a flavor that’s intensified yet preserved, a true taste of the sea.

This photo was captured during one of our unforgettable trips to Kafuri Beach in Itoshima, a while ago. The memory of that day, the scent of the ocean, and the sight of the fish drying under the sun still lingers with me.

This photo of Odo Park, taken back in 2018, brings back memories of when we first arrived in Japan. We didn’t have a car at the time, and Odo Park became our go-to spot. It was a place that felt like a breath of fresh air during those early days. For a park in Nishi Ward, Fukuoka, it’s impressively large and filled with life. The gentle sound of waves from the nearby beach, the cool breeze that greets you as you walk—it all felt like a soothing escape.

The playground, with its huge slides, was where our children spent countless hours, their laughter filling the air. They loved it.

Odo Park isn’t just a playground. You could fish, and if you had a yacht, there’s a private harbor for members. A quaint, old shrine stood tucked away, carrying whispers of ancient stories. And there was always something happening on the large open fields—soccer, volleyball, or basketball, with groups gathering to play and enjoy the day.

Cycling along the sea’s edge was a favorite of mine. The path wound around the park, offering glimpses of ferries heading to and from Nokonoshima Island. And as the day came to a close, the sunset would paint the sky with colors so beautiful, it felt like one of Japan’s best-kept secrets. Odo Park became more than just a park—it was a place where memories were made.

The plume thistle, known as ノアザミ (Noazami) in Japan, is a resilient perennial herb that thrives in the mountain foothills of southern Japan. Its young stems, tender and full of flavor, are prized as wild vegetables, often transformed into crispy tempura delights in local restaurants. There’s a subtle fragrance to its taste, making it a culinary treasure for those seeking the flavors of nature.

During its delicate bloom, the roots are harvested and dried, crafting the raw medicinal preparation known as 大薊 (Taikei)—a traditional remedy that holds a quiet reverence in the world of Japanese herbal medicine.
