Hi, I’m Justin. Originally from a small town in Northern Ireland, I’ve been in and out of Asia for the last 20 years, and living in Tokyo for the past ten. IKIMASHO focuses on the quieter, gentler side of life: featuring beautiful suburban scenes and luxury boutique hotels from both Japan and across SE Asia. I hope you enjoy this little slice of daily life, showcasing the city I now call home.
If you are a luxury hotel brand and wish to be featured on IKIMASHO, please contact us via our Facebook page. Past collaborations can be found here.
Justin / IKIMASHO!

Hi, I’m a big fan of your blog. I’ve been following it for a while now.
It’s nice to see an artist blogs about travel. I do a little bit of drawing myself 🙂
I’ve been “following” your blog, without reading it, shame on me. That changes today!! I love what I see so far.

Hi Justin.
Nice work. Very usefull.
Please let us know the Izakaya name in your publication : the secret’s out: ¥30 beers in tokyo.
All the best,
Shin
Hello Shin! I’m so sorry for the delay in my reply. The Izakaya name is Medaka and the sign is written in hiragana (めだか). I think the beer price is 110 now, but still super cheap!
