akita bowHey there, I’m Akita Bow. Though I was born and raised in Tokyo, I’m actually an Akita dog originating from Akita Prefecture in the northeastern part of Japan.
I want to share with you the things I’ve come across while strolling through the streets of Tokyo and stories I’ve heard from people. If you visit Tokyo, give my story a read. I know the streets of Tokyo much better than the folks around here. Cheers!
