Japan Dreams
Japan and skiing. These are two words I had never associated. I pictured Japan as the land of electronics, cheaper cars, bustling Tokyo, and fast-paced life. My image of mountains and Japan was really limited to that of the most photographed summit in the world: Mount Fuji. But I really imagined it as a stand-alone volcano lost in the ever flat land of the rising sun, imagining it was so popular because it was the only snow covered mountain in the country. Think. Again.
