Today we travel with Yukari Kane to Hokkaido, Japan, where, after a kidney transplant, she skis, and bathes in hot springs, and attempts to make peace with a version of Japan she didn’t expect to find. Yukari Kane is an author, educator and veteran journalist with 20 years of experience including at The Wall Street Journal and Reuters. She is co-founder and CEO of Prison Journalism Project and the author of "Haunted Empire: Apple After Steve Jobs." The day her book launched in March 2014, she was diagnosed with late-stage kidney failure. She had a kidney transplant with her sister as a donor a year later.
