Kyoto is famous for its "Traditional Crafts" (also known as Japanese Crafts) and whilst I was there on my travels, I decided to visit a Gold Foil craftsman to document his stories.
This video does not necessarily highlight his career, but rather his advice to everyone who wants to pursue a passion. His stories really resonated with me, and I thought this could be said to anyone that is trying to master a profession.
Me and my friend spent three days going around some of the iconic spots such as Fushimi Inari (01:42), Arashiyama Bamboo Forest (01:44), Gion City (00:49), and some very local places such as Myoshinji Temple (01:28). Other than that, the city is famous for its food and architectures and I highly recommend everyone to visit if they have the opportunity!
*I made this video a year ago but it never got published. So I decided to put it on my channel and share his words.

About Myself:
I guess I'm a filmmaker, adventure photographer, storyteller, and content creator...
I'm based in Tokyo, doing freelance video work for both Japanese and international clients.
My interest for video grew when I first went backpacking on my own. In the beginning it was just for fun, but I slowly found myself loving to express through visuals.
