Japan

As you may have heard, I’m planning a trip to Japan at the end of May. It’ll be my very first time there and my FOMO levels are skyrocketing, so I built a website to let seasoned japanophiles like you to help me.

What places should I visit? Where should I eat? What should I avoid? What are the hidden secrets of this magical and crazy island? Please, let me know and I'll be forever grateful.
