Future Perfect: Steve Wide and Michelle Mackintosh’s Many Tokyo Stories
Dylan Bird is joined by Steve Wide (of Far and Wide!) and Michelle Mackintosh, authors of the new book Tokyo Story: A Guide, to chat about their years of experience exploring the ever-changing city, and highlight some of the rich cultural hangouts and shops featured in the book.
Tokyo Story: A Guide is out now via Hardie Grant.
“[We’ve returned to Japan] three times a year since our first visit [in 1996] … every time we would go to Tokyo, something new and exciting and interesting was happening - it was never ever the same … we were really feeling like we needed to see what was going on in our favourite city”
