This is what I look like all day every day here in #Japan. I am well aware I look like A #Tourist, but it works. I don't get sunburnt, I don't get heat stroke, and the socks keep my feet from blistering too much.
Also, I am absolutely a "Tourist, Attraction". So many women have commented on my beard - even caught one taking a sneaky photo on the subway. And the kids are in awe of my height - I am a full head taller than the crowds.
