Artist Reply: Thank you for the comment. I, personally, love Japan - especially the Kinki/Kansai region. But, I've never been to the Middle East, although I hear Turkey is actually rather beautiful! If you go, definitely let me know - I'd love to see the pictures! Speaking of which, if you really are interested in Japan, I've got a lot of other pictures if you would like to check them out. Just let me know what of and I can see what I've got (I've mostly got pictures of Kyoto and Wakayama since I liked these places the most :) )

Artist Reply: Thank you very much! It was an amazing place to go visit. Unfortunately, it was in the middle of summer, so it was quite hot! I hadn't ever known ice cream could taste so good! If you are ever in the Kinki/Kansai area of Japan, I really suggest going to visit. It wasn't nearly as crowded as other places were. If you are interested, I can find the name of the place. Please just let me know :)
