Hi! My name is Daan and I am from The Netherlands. I studies Aerospace engineering in Delft and I work at a small education company in Leiden. I am currently cycling the length of Japan, from the south of Kyushu to the North of Hokkaido. I hope to meet some interesting people along the way and learn about Japanese culture. I would love to share some of my stories with you!
