Following The Rising Sons

Rugby Adventures from South America to Japan

Embark on my riveting journey of two halves, where I follow the England Rugby team on their tour of Argentina, to two years later where I'm in Japan, following the teams world cup dreams. This compelling tale unfolds across two continents, capturing the heart of rugby fever during an unforgettable tour to Argentina and an epic adventure traversing the length of Japan.

I myself am an avid rugby fan, ex player and passionate traveller, writing about my adventures following the England Rugby team on their tours.

In the first half of the book, I take multiple bus trips from Santiago, Chile, navigating the majestic Andes to reach San Juan in the Mendoza region. The expedition continues through Cordoba, Santa Fe, and the vibrant streets of Buenos Aires before venturing into Uruguay, Paraguay, and a tantalizing glimpse of Brazil.

In the second half, I am in the bustling metropolis of Abu Dhabi and then onto the vibrant landscapes of South Korea. The journey reaches its climax on Japan's northernmost island, Hokkaido, with the cultural delights of Sapporo. Witness the unfolding drama as I use trains, buses, and ferries to travel over 1,000 miles through the enchanting islands of Honshu and Kyushu, tracking England's Rugby World Cup dream.
