Tokyo, Japan

 Daria was the first guest who sent me an email. And her story was proof that miracles exist and that dreams come true. When you follow your passion with open heart and mind, the universe will show you where to go. Today, Daria is in Tokyo showing me one of her favorite temples and sharing the beautiful story of mysterious Kitsune.

Throughout the world, foxes have reputations for many different things; but in Japan, they have important mythical status, oscillating between a symbol of cunning, and a powerful possessor of great intelligence and good fortune. In mythic culture, both of these symbols had the ability to shape shift into human form. In part due to the close relationship between foxes and humans, they are often portrayed as faithful friends, lovers or loyal companions.
