Chicken Karaage is a classic Japanese fried chicken dish. It’s so popular in Japan that you can find it in all izakaya, depachika, supermarkets and street food stalls. In fact, we had quite a bit of Karaage during our Japanese holiday. One of my most vivid memories of our trip is eating Karaage under the…
Kanazawa Guide – Japan
Kanazawa was the city we visited after Kyoto. I was so sad of leaving Kyoto that I was convinced I would not like Kanazawa. It’s hard to come right after Kyoto. Instead, I am happy to say that Kanazawa is actually very beautiful! It’s not a huge city, yet there are plenty of interesting…
Kyoto Guide – Japan
The other day, I was reading the news when a photo stole my attention. It was the image of a geisha standing on a red bridge and holding a paper umbrella. I immediately knew the picture was taken in Kyoto. In fact, the article stated that Kyoto was recently crowned the most beautiful city…
Nara and Fushimi Inari Guide – Japan
During our trip to Japan, we stayed 6 nights in Kyoto. We really needed some time to unwind and we didn’t want to move around too much, so we mainly stayed in town. The only time we did venture outside was during our day trip to Nara. Today I will share with you a brief…
Koyasan Guide – Japan
As I have always been very interested in experiencing the traditional side of Japan, Koyasan was high on my list of “must-visit” places. I was very intrigued by other travellers’ stories about it and I really wanted to see it for myself. Koyasan is a little town on top of a mountain, filled with…
Osaka Guide – Japan
Ah! Osaka! I must admit, I had never thought much about it. I don’t know why… probably because I have always been more attracted to the traditional side of Japan and I thought Tokyo would be enough to experience modernity. We were so uninterested that we had even skipped it all together in the first…
Hiroshima Guide – Japan
During our recent trip to Japan, we also visited Hiroshima. The majority of you may not know that I have a Political Science degree, with a major in International History… I love history and I was particularly interested in visiting a place that has become the symbol of the atrocities that wars can cause…
Miyajima Guide – Japan
Miyajima was the second place we visited during our recent trip to Japan. We loved it so much that I thought of writing a little “Miyajima Guide” to invite you to include it in your next itinerary! It is absolutely worth it. Miyajima is a small island in front of Hiroshima (an absolute must visit…
Tokyo – Asakusa guide
During our recent trip to Japan, we spent a few days in Tokyo. It is a huge city and each area has its own characteristics… they are almost separate towns that make up a huge metropolis. Asakusa is completely different to Shibuya or Ginza for example. Even though each place is fascinating, we particularly…
