Two weeks in Japan – see our impressions, travel tips, and cost break down!
We decided it was time to get out of the city and see some nature, first hand, by hiking up Mt. Misen (~550m), with some couchsurfing couples we met along the way!
Vicky and I had the privilege of visiting two museums in Japan; one in Tokyo celebrating the Japanese involvement in ww2, and one in Hiroshima appealing for world peace.
We finally made it to Tokyo! 4 days in the nation’s capital and so much to do we could have stayed a week. Here is a list of 10 of our favorite outings.
Rounding off our visit to the alps with two nights in a hotel in Takayama before heading to the big city!
Making our way to rural Japan, nothing resembling Kyoto here!
We rounded off our 4 day visit to Kyoto by visiting a few more temples, as well as staying with a Japanese family for two nights!
Kyoto is a city with over 2000 temples. Vicky and I saw them all…OK, not really, but it feels like it!
