About

SHO SAKAMOTO

Completed a round-the-world journey, featured in the media, and now undertaking a second global journey!

At the age of 38, I pressed the reset button on my life.
I couldn’t bear the thought of living an ordinary life and leaving nothing behind.
So I set out on a journey—visiting karate dojos around the world and connecting with people through homestays.
I threw myself into the unknown, testing my limits.

This is my challenge to myself—one that I stake my life on.
