• Darwin to Tokyo!

    April 26, 2017 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Ok so today's a big travelling day, both in miles and culturally.

    The nerdy part of me wants to share some statistics...
    Northern Territory, area 548,000 sq mi, pop 244,000 (half that of Sheffield! 150,000 are in Darwin

    Tokyo, area 844 sq mi, pop 13.6 million

    Population density (per sq mi)
    NT 0.5
    Tokyo 16,121

    Having said that, Sheffield's population density (depending on which areas are counted in) is over 10,000 per sq mi.

    I've had a fabulous time in Australia over the last 6 weeks (2/5 of my trip done 🙁). I'm really glad I'll be back on the east coast at the start of June. That's just an accident of planning and air fares but I have a strong feeling that it will give a better sense of completion (close the gestalt 😆)
