Jessica Kozuka
Freelance writer and editor Jessica Kozuka has been Tokyo-based since 2004, when a gap year turned into something rather more permanent. Her work has appeared in Wine Spectator, Travel + Leisure SE Asia, CNN Travel, and The Japan Times, as well as numerous other print and online media outlets. She is rarely to be found without a book or two within arm’s reach and runs a monthly book club for other bibliophiles in the Tokyo area. She's also an enthusiastic if mediocre cook and daily laments the smallness of Japanese kitchens.
