Life on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line

For the last year or so I have been living close to Shakujii-Koen Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. Previously I have lived close to Hoya Station, Higashikurume Station, of course both on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line.

During all the years of living and commuting on this line I have searched for information in English about history, events, places to eat etc. connected with the stations that fly by the train window. I found bits and pieces here and there, but nothing close to the comprehensive source I was looking for. So I decided to do something about it, and here it is, Seibu Ikebukuro Life.

In the short term I intend to start out with posts about things currently close to my heart; restaurants, pools, mountains and parks. This blog will naturally be very much centred on Shakujii Park, but I will try to make sure no part of the line is left behind. Suggestions on improvements and topics to be covered are most welcome!
