Love Japan Magazine Issue 1

We did it! Issue #1 of Love Japan magazine has been released, and I’m so excited to share it with you. The idea started off as a daydream whilst drinking Japanese tea and reading one of my favourite fashion magazines. Japanese culture is one of my greatest passions in life, and I started to wonder whether I could publish my own magazine, combining the aesthetics of independent British magazines with Japanese themed content, focusing on lifestyle, travel, art, fashion and food.

Within a day I had created a website, Instagram and Twitter accounts and was advertising for contributors.

We’ve had a great response, and am so happy that we now have contributors from the UK, USA and Japan. Everyone who has been involved with our first issue has one thing in common; a love for Japan and it’s culture. I wanted to make Love Japan Magazine a place for fans to share their own unique insights into Japan, and how they have been inspired by this wonderful country to be creative; take photos, create artwork, travel, cook, and write.

From street photography to travel articles, interviews to delicious recipes, Issue #1 is packed full of Japan inspired articles, and hopefully there will be something for everyone in here.

A huge thank you goes to all of our contributors. We’ll be releasing Issue #2 later in the year, and we want to get the next edition into print as well, so do keep connected with us on social media and join us on this fantastic journey.
