We rode in a Mazda 2 Denio 1.3L 5-door from the port town of Takamatsu
to the remote Iya Valley.
It copes well on a potholed hairpin.

We’re staying at Chiiori House, a lovingly restored 300YO thatched homestead miles from anything.

The view up the valley.
There are monkeys but they’ve yet to show themselves.

The interior, now.
