Japan

Fabulous!

I have been wanting to go to Japan since I was little. I know we’ve kind of “mysticized” Japan a bit, and made it seem like everything is wacky and strange there, in films like “Lost in Translation.” But they do have a lot of special, unique things there that are so neat to see- capsule hotels, vending machines everywhere, beautiful temples and nature, and of course, a plethora of cute Hello Kitty things!! Japan was very clean and orderly, the people were helpful and friendly, and everything was great! A bit expensive, of course, but I though it would be much worse than it was- I had grown up hearing about $20 lipstick and $300 Levi jeans from Japanese exchange students who stayed with my family. On the whole, I loved Japan, and I need to go back and see more of it!

On your next trip try out bullet train ride to Kyoto and Hiroshima. Then try ferry crossing to Migiyama Island to absorb Shintoism and breathtaking views. Not to miss the lake district of Japan around Mt Fuji. Also the authentic Cherry Blossom dance takes you deep into Japanese culture.For experience try Public Bath..invigorating.
