Blake Tanaka

Blake's unique journey began when his Japanese father, an astronomer, met his Italian mother, a luxury hotel manager, during a conference in Venice. Growing up between these contrasting worlds shaped his appreciation for both scientific precision and refined experiences. After a successful career developing software for astronomical observatories, Blake pivoted to luxury travel content creation following a life-changing skiing expedition in Hokkaido where he captured stunning footage of the northern lights, combining his technical expertise with his passion for cultural exploration.
