A Japanese Vagabond PART 2 is the latter half of my travel essay, based on my experiences during almost four years of drifting around the globe by bicycle: from the passage over the sea on the Italian cargo-passenger ship to Japan after nearly two years of travelling around Europe (working in Paris), including Turkey, where my way was blocked by heavy snow and severe backache, and staying in Egypt for a half of a year.

In 1986, Mayumi left Japan with a bicycle to flee from constrains of life as a Japanese girl. Without a plan nor travelling experiences, she kept pedalling around the globe – during the final epoch of the Cold War – for about 35,000 kilometres, facing various kinds of difficulties and taking advantage of people’s goodwill. This is the travel story of about the first half of her drifting passage, from Japan up to the last stop in South America – Brazil – in which there are clues to interpret the enigma of Japan and Japanese as well as a cross section of Latin America in the Cold War era.
