Brief Requirements: One year ago I moved from London to Tokyo. Even though it sounds as a great adventure, finding yourself new home in a completely new place is a internal and not easy process. I wanted to create series of images that will reflect feelings connected with going outside of my comfort zone as well as to show how different is Japan from Europe.

Key Brief Ideas: Most people see Tokyo as crazy, strange and colorful place. I wanted to show life there in a bit more personal perspective of the outsider who is not a tourist but actually is trying to live there. That's why I decided to use black ink and just pink background of the paper. I also wanted to show more personal experiences from everyday Tokyo life that are maybe not so well known.
