N.B: To put a name to the face

There is something that often comes up whenever I’m having a conversation about the ramblings I post here: who is he.

For most of the people I talk to, they know who he is, because they also know him, which is great and should settle any anxiety the anonymity may cause. And yes, I post photos of him, so the questions remains: why don’t I just use his name? For me, the reason is quite simple, but one that I deliberated over for quite some time in the beginning.

He is obviously a very personal aspect of my life, and this blog is a very public one. While I’m happy to share my adventures with those of you interested in following them, there are some things that I’d prefer to keep to myself: namely him. 

And yes, call me hypocritical, because I have shared the names of other friends I’ve traveled with in the past, and have decided that I will do again in the future, but I’m sorry folks, he is just one thing I’m going to keep all to myself, because when it comes to him I’m selfish like that. Sorry, but I’m not sorry.

See you all in Japan in a few weeks.
