Tokyo Seasons

A trip to Tokyo, a search for answers and finding friends, who are more than family

Spending the end of December in Tokyo was definitely not Caitlyn’s plan. Alone and bored in her hotel room she gives a new dating app a try and ends up chatting with Will. However, when they actually meet in person, he doesn’t seem to know who she is. It turns out that Caitlyn actually texted Jude, his best friend. Jude, with the best of intentions, was looking for a person for his hopelessly romantic friend, but messed up, deceiving Caitlyn.

But then Jude offers his help to Caitlyn – who is in desperate need of support, as there’s a reason why she came to Japan in the first place. And, unfortunately, she doesn’t seem to be able to work up the courage to confront it by herself. As they stroll through festively illuminated Tokyo, Caitlyn and Jude discover that they might fall for each other despite the mix-up at the beginning.
