Floats of the Pacific

Online Exclusive

Okinawa, Japan

Shortly after moving to Okinawa, Japan and on one of her first beach visits after a typhoon, Tina Terry found a small Hokkaido roller float. That got her hooked on floats. Over the next year and a half she visited various places in Northern Japan and Taiwan in search of these little (and sometimes big) treasures. Her travel adventures have helped her acquire and develop a nice float collection. Tina has since moved to California, USA but she hopes to go back and visit Northern Japan again to continue her float-hunting adventures. Photos and videos by Tina @tealbamboo.
