"Travel Like Anna"

Anna meeting the famous Sanjuro-kun for the first time at Bitchu-Matsuyama Castle.

An old friend of mine named Anna Mazurek has been visiting Japan this month. Anna is a travel photographer and writer, and her articles have appeared in a number of well-known publications. She’s also an accomplished solo traveler, with 60+ countries under her belt. In her articles and blog posts, she often writes helpful guides for fellow explorers – in fact, she wrote a whole book on how to manage your money while traveling!

Anna is based in Texas, USA, but she spends many months traveling and working each year. She has a lot of experience in Thailand and India in particular.

I first got in touch with Anna many years ago through a mutual friend. For several years, we only knew each other on social media, but we finally had a chance to meet face-to-face in Myanmar in 2013. Since then, we’ve met a number of times in different countries, including one earlier visit to Japan.

We both love photography and travel, but Anna has made a proper career out of it. I’ve learned a lot from talking to her about her experiences. Since the last time I saw her, she’s done some interesting work – writing for magazines, working on cruise ships – and we had plenty of catching up to do. We also reminisced about previous trips, of course.

Please take a look at Anna’s website! Besides the amazing photos, you’ll find a ton of good travel advice and experiences you can learn from.
