Tokyo city is a concrete jungle. But nature seekers are not let down. They should look west. There is more than enough to explore in the western Tama area of Tokyo. I have already been to Mt. Mitake and Mt. Hinode in that area. There are plenty of courses for the hikers here. I thought [...]

This is the satelite image of the route we take from Hotel to reach Office. Google Maps comes very handy if you are new to US and do not know how to drive around. You just have to trust and blindly ( with open eyes) follow the instructions. You make one single mistake you are [...]
