Sumo Grand Tour

Every summer the top sumo division tour around northern Japan and perform exhibitions. Last year I went for the first time and was lucky enough to meet yokozuna Asashōryū (one of the greatest yokozunas ever; from Mongolia) and Baruto (from Estonia).

This years exhibition was on August 13th and although I didn't meet either yokozuna this time we did meet Baruto again! He was in the konbini getting some snacks!


This was the picture I took with him last year!


And this is when we got to meet Asashōryū


I love sumo!
