Tori in Akune

Kokoro is a personal travel journal — a space to document places, impressions, and the moments in between.

The name means heart or spirit in Japanese. It reflects the idea that travel isn’t just about where you go, but how it shapes you.

This site brings together photos, notes, and reflections from the road. It’s not a guide or a review site — just an ongoing attempt to stay present, and to notice what each journey leaves behind.

I’m Karim — a yoga teacher, photographer, and curious traveler. My other work lives over at karim.yoga, where I explore movement, mantra, and everything that connects body and mind.
