About Me — The Story Behind 360° Reviews

Hi, I’m Ryota. Thanks for visiting our About page!

I’m from Japan, and I’ve always had a deep love for the outdoors. Mountains, oceans, and forests—these places inspire me, push me beyond my limits, and remind me just how thrilling life truly is.

I created 360° Reviews to share that inspiration with the world and help more people experience the unique magic of action cameras and outdoor adventures.

How It Started

In 2023, I began my journey as an outdoor lifestyle blogger, focusing on in-depth reviews of action cameras and outdoor gear. To me, action cameras are more than gadgets — they’re storytelling tools, adventure partners, and memory keepers.

As my content grew, friends encouraged me to expand my reach. That sparked an idea:

What if these reviews could cross language barriers and help outdoor lovers worldwide choose the right camera?

So from 2026, I officially launched this blog — a dedicated platform designed to help beginners and enthusiasts alike understand action cameras, choose the right gear, and capture their adventures with confidence.

What I Love Doing Outdoors

When I’m not testing cameras, I’m usually out exploring. Some of my favorite experiences include:

  • Hiking and mountain climbing challenges
  • Building snow shelters and sleeping in them ❄️
  • Solo backpacking across Europe for two months
  • Cycling across Japan while wild camping
  • Lighting mountain bonfires under the stars
  • Rock climbing (even when it’s a little scary!)
  • Traveling alone to discover new landscapes

Outdoor adventures aren’t just hobbies for me — they’re the testing ground where I truly evaluate gear performance in real conditions.

Why I Focus on Action Cameras

I’ve loved photography for years and studied many types of cameras, but action cameras and 360° cameras always felt the most intuitive and exciting to use.

They’re:

  • compact
  • durable
  • creative
  • immersive

Most importantly, they allow you to capture life exactly as you experience it.

That’s why they’ve become an essential part of my outdoor lifestyle — and why I’m passionate about helping others understand them too.

My Mission With This Blog

Through this site, I aim to share real-world testing, honest opinions, and practical guides so you can confidently choose gear and enjoy your adventures.

My core principles:

  1. Share everything about outdoor gear and action cameras honestly
  2. Stay curious and keep learning new technology
  3. Provide transparent, experience-based reviews
  4. Write content that’s easy to understand and actually helpful
  5. Keep challenging myself and improving every day

Let’s Explore Together 🌍

My goal is to make Action Camera Beginner Guide a blog that every outdoor enthusiast and camera lover finds both fun and genuinely useful.
