One day while walking around Shinjuku, a major hub for government and business in Tokyo, Japan, I noticed a shelter built by a homeless man. It looked semi-permanent, but more importantly, had solar panels on it. I thought this was very different than the homeless I encountered in my former city of Vancouver, Canada, so I started to investigate homelessness in Japan. • I was lucky enough to interview Professor Tom Gill, who has researched homelessness and other societal issues in Japan for many years. • This is part 1 of a series of videos I'm making about the homeless in Japan. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave in the comments. Thanks for watching. • VIEW PART 2 • Who are Japan's Homeless?

It really does help me spend the time on topics like this that take time to research and produce. • → / lifewhereimfrom • Sources • → UN Drug Use and Health Consequences Data - https://data.unodc.org/#state:38 • → Yakuza by apes_abroad - http://flickr.com/photos/apes_abroad/..., CC BY-SA 2.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index... • → Horse Racing - By Guilhem Vellut from Tokyo, Japan - Horse racing @ Tokyo Race Course @ Fuchu, CC BY 2.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index... • → Pachinko By Tischbeinahe - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index... • → U.S. Marine Corps By Sgt.
