Hi, I'm Jeffrey and welcome back to Night Falls.

Come, settle in for tonight's soothing bedtime story.

As always, don't worry if you fall asleep before the end. You can drift off whenever you're ready.

I got a wonderful review recently from a mum who has used my stories to help her sleep whilst going through sleepless nights with her baby.

I was so grateful to hear I've played a part in helping you through those magical, but difficult nights.

I'd love to hear from more of you, so if you haven't yet, please leave a review and give me your feedback

via the link in the show notes. Thank you. Your support is so special.

Come, get cozy beside the fire. as we rejoin Lawrence Hargreaves on his pedal-powered adventure across the continent.

Tonight, his two wheels transport him across Japan's Shumanami Kaido, perhaps better described

as the path through paradise.

As Lawrence enjoys verdant countryside and stunning temples, his trip has me wondering if I ought to dust off my bicycle helmet.

Before we begin, here's a quick word from our valued sponsors who make this free content possible.

Barclay's ready-made investments.

The clue's in the name.

Not Barclays, where do I begin investments?

You can start from 50 pounds.

That's why they're not difficult to get started investments either.

And you can choose your risk level, so they're hardly in at the deep end investments.

So if you've got savings and you want to help grow your money over five years or more,

then search Barclays' ready-made investments.

Make money work for you.

Investing is not for everyone.
