Ryoko Miyamoto is my dear friend from Japan. She quit her high paying sales job in Tokyo in 2017 to begin her world travels. Since then, she's visited over thirty countries, worked on a cherry farm in Japan, worked at a travel guide company and was interviewed by a Japanese news agency for her unique story of travel and upon return, work on a cherry farm, something most people her age run away from.
