- OUKAN PART 1 - I recently had the pleasure to step into the kitchen at @oukandining , a fine dining restaurant in Berlin, using only plants, ferments, and pure craft. More than the final plates, I wanted to capture the hands that shape the menu. The precision of the knife work, the steam rising from the pass, the rare, unspoken rhythm found in controlled chaos and that kind of fun energy you feel when people genuinely enjoy the work they do. I also got to see their fermentation lab, where the ferments are the source of that incomparable depth and umami that shapes a big part of their philosophy. Thank you to @steviedvick , @lucasmonteiro_100 , @qu.fermentationstudio , Luise and the rest of the team! A big thank you to Matthias for making it happen! #fujix100vi #fujifilmxseries #fujifilmphotography #fujifilm #fujifilmshooters

Where's home again? (アドベンチャー)

Elevated mood, elevated view.

Landing in Seoul, I've decided to collect stories from strangers. In my new notebook, bought from my favorite shop, I wrote a question in Korean on its first page: "What comes to your mind when you think of happiness?" Many emotional stories have been written, but one lingered. In a dusty vintage shop in Seongsu, sunlight illuminating forgotten treasures, I found an old woman seated amidst delicate relics. Her wrinkled face held a quiet peace. Hesitantly, with broken Korean and gestures, I showed her my question. A soft smile touched her lips. Her eyes crinkled as she read. She looked around the shop, at a chipped doll, a faded photo, antique teacups. Then, softly, in Korean I barely grasped, she spoke words like "sunshine," "daughter's laughter," "warm rice." Her tone, her voice, conveyed a profound sense of peace. She picked up a small, intricately carved wooden bird from a nearby shelf, its surface smooth with age. She held it in her palm, her gaze distant, as if recalling a precious memory. Then, she looked at me, her eyes filled with a gentle warmth that transcended language. She pointed to the bird, then to her heart, and then made a small, upward motion with her hand, like releasing something into the air. In that moment, I might not have understood her exact words, but I understood the message. Happiness, for her in that vintage haven, wasn't grand. It was simple moments: sun, joy, comfort, and the gentle release of memories. A comfortable silence settled between us, filled only by the soft ticking of an antique clock. In that shared moment, amidst the forgotten treasures of the past, I felt a profound connection, a quiet understanding that transcended the boundaries of language, a glimpse into the enduring essence of happiness. Life is nothing but moments. Today is good because we don't know tomorrow. And today is good because we can continue to live today. It's today. Today is better than yesterday. Today us better than tomorrow.

S(e)oul dumparoo ✨️ 오늘 내 기분? 컬러로 말할게

너도 사람이라고 실수할 수 있어 슬픔을 느낄 수 있어 천천히 치유할 수도 있어 너의 삶을 그렇개 단순하게 살아라 항상 괜찮은 척 하지 마 네가 흘린 눈물도 참아낸 아픔도 모두 의미 없는 게 아니야 그 모든 순간들이 너를 더 단단하게 만들어줄 거야 아무튼 오늘도 참 애썼고 정말 수고했어 너는 정말 최선을 다했어

I licked it so it's mine.

Kissaten vibes and good times ✨️
