James fully ‘gone native’
Actor Jirayu “James” Tangsrisuk, host of Channel 3 travel show “Tabi Japan with James Jirayu”, will be suited up like a samurai warrior for the promotional exhibition “Japan Discovery 2018: Authentic Tohoko” on G Floor of The Mall Bang Kapi tomorrow through September 2.
James will share his experiences travelling in the Tohoku region, which covers six prefectures – Aomori, Akita, Miyagi, Iwate, Yamagata and Fukushima – each of which has its own fascinating places to visit and things to try. Fukushima, interestingly enough, has always been famous for its peaches.
