What does RAKUDA mean?
Rakuda ラクダ is the Japanese word for Camel.
We named the project after the Camel because it resembles our vision in; traveling over long roads, self-sufficiency, and adapting to the surrounding environment. These habits are some of what we aspire to achieve. These, of course, and a lot more..
A time spent in upgrading a skill or deepening knowledge.
Play
A time spent in pure joy and entertainment.
Where and when did RAKUDA start?
It all started a few weeks before our first thru-hike in Nagoya, Japan, 2016. Back then, RAKUDA was just a code name for a project where we meet every once in a while for a thru-hike adventure. Today, we are taking it to a new chapter and transforming it into a lifestyle design project in which we find through it a sustainable way to improve each day and spend our time effectively.
Maintenance
A time spent in maintaining the self, health, and the surrounding environment.
Tree
A time spent in connecting with close family & friends.
