We hit up Tokyo, Takayama, and Kyoto all in 2 weeks. I really love this country! Such gracious people, efficient in every manner and the place is super clean. Fashion, food, all on point and aesthetics were beautiful. I encourage everyone to put Japan on their countries to visit. Food pictures coming in next post. For now, enjoy the scenery...
