Canyoning is the sport of getting down narrow mountain rivers and streams however you can. That means abseiling, repelling, hiking, swimming, jumping and, best of all (wherever the shape of a waterfall allows), sliding! "Canyons," one of Japan's largest and most reputable outdoor adventure tour companies with 13 years of experience, offered me the opportunity to go on the first ever commercial tour of Yamagata Prefecture's Namekawa River Canyon. This is what happened.

Bryan is an expat English teacher, published writer and aspiring producer living in Niigata Japan. When he isn't writing articles for Japanese publications in English, he likes to spend his modest earnings to find inexpensive ways to travel and experience Japan.

Traveling on a Dime is a periodic show of Bryan's adventures in one of the most expensive countries in the world. As he says, "It doesn't have to be expensive, and you can have an amazing experience even when traveling on a dime."
