Little vignettes around travelling
I read this while travelling around France, and it was a nice read. There is a nice mix of travels in Japan, and travels across the globe.
Each sketch is only 3-4 pages, so it's very easy to dip in and out of.
Quite a few came from writing for 九州 travel board, so there's slightly more weighting towards 九州. This was nice for me, since I've spent a lot of time there!
Reading it all in 3 days was a bit much, it did feel slightly formulaic by the end, but I don't think I'd have felt that if I read it over a few weeks instead.
Language wise
Very accessible, often new vocab is something the author is encountering for the first time too, and after she explains it.
I put 5* for langauge learning, since I think the mini essays are good mini learning, and not miles off from the style of the JLPT reading section excerpts.
