“Having lived in Japan
most of my life, I’m amazed
at howTokyo manages to
excite me with new things.
It’s a city where people
from all over come to study,
work or travel.”
“As in the rest of Japan,
Osaka is one of the safest
and cleanest places in the
world. Their culture is also
so refreshingly different.”
“Nagoya is not as busy as
Tokyo. It is a quiet city, with
modernity sitting well with
tranquility. Definitely worth
a visit.”
