🗺 The author’s route across Hokkaido and two of its outlying islands, from east to north
Human Again is a series of dispatches from a walk across northern Hokkaido, in August and September 2022. It is the second part of my circumambulation of Japan.
It continues the journey, from the same spot and on the same calendar day, described in These Walking Dreams, the diary I kept on my 4,300-kilometer walk across Japan which finished in Nemuro on August 21, 2017.
