This time, we head to Wakayama Prefecture to take in the beauty of Japanese nature captured by German-born Dominik Schmitz, a professional gardener who introduces esthetic elements from his homeland into traditional Japanese landscaping. We meet up with Dominik as he welcomes his first autumn season since he began working in the gardens of Nishimuro-in Temple, located at a World Heritage site. We also visit the workplace of Filipino Clark Ken Sacaon, a welder in Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture.
