H E L L O N A O S H I M A !

The next morning i had to get up mega early to set off to Naoshima Island aka the Art Island! Thank god I left myself lots of time because i definitely got lost a couple of times on the way but I made it to Haneada ready for my flight to Takamatsu (which was actually bumpy and a bit terrifying but I managed to sleep through most of it haha)

After landing I had to get a bus to the port and then a ferry to Naoshima and another bus (above!) to kind of part way to Benesse House, the hotel/gallery I was staying at for the night. Had to drag my stupid suitcase (my nemesis of the trip) across sand for the last part but did see Yayoi Kusama’s pumpkins on my way so cannot complainnnnnn!

Then I checked into Benesse House which is INCREDIBLLLLLLLLE!!!!!!!! It’s super minimal and all just concrete and glass and heavenly! Was my most expensive hotel (hence only staying one night) but TOTALLY worth it... just look!!!
