During my visit to Japan several years ago, I had the privilege of exploring the renowned Nasu Mountain, a remarkable destination steeped in both natural beauty and historical significance. On that fortunate day, the sky was adorned with a perfect blend of clouds and blue, enhancing the allure of the landscape. It was a serene and captivating scene, despite the absence of the autumn foliage, which had already fallen by the time of my visit.
Nasu Mountain, located in the Itamuro region of Tochigi Prefecture, is a revered landmark with a rich history. Known for its striking peaks and hot springs, it has long been a place of spiritual significance, with its natural hot springs once believed to have healing properties. The region's volcanic activity and scenic beauty have made it a beloved destination for travelers and pilgrims alike.

Over the weekend, I accompanied Joel on a foraging excursion for mushrooms upon Mount Macedon. There were but few to be found, for the weather has remained unseasonably warm, unfavourable to the flourishing of fungi. In the end, we made our way to the establishment in Hawthorn and partook of a meal of ramen.
