June 20, 2018 by Pete Martin3 Comments

Dizzying heights and Robot Wars in Dazzling Tokyo

Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden

Japan has always held a certain mystic for us in the western world. While it might be often be highly romaticised compared to the reality, Japan still holds many surprises, and you'll probably be surprised in ways you never expected. It cost the guts of €1200 for flights with BA  as we flew in high season around April/May it was totally worth it. From the moment I stepped foot in Narita airport in Tokyo, I fell in love with Japan and its … [Read more...]
