Tokyo has no shortage of iconic, slightly surreal things to do, and the TeamLab exhibitions are very much part of that. During my month in Japan, they were easily some of the coolest and most memorable experiences I had in the city. If you’re not familiar with them yet, TeamLab Planets and TeamLab Borderless are…
Whenever I travel these days, I’m going to be honest… I use an eSIM everywhere. Europe, Asia, South America, it doesn’t matter. It’s just so much easier! For quite a while now, I’ve been using Sim Local, and I genuinely love their product and think it’s the best eSIM for Japan. I’ve used it all…
Tokyo, and Japan in general, has absolutely blown up over the past year. At least that’s how it felt to me. Everywhere I looked, friends were suddenly flying to Tokyo, and my Instagram feed was basically wall-to-wall Japan content. I spent almost a full week in Tokyo, and I’ll be honest: I slightly dreaded writing…
Tokyo, and Japan in general, has absolutely exploded in popularity over the past couple of years, and honestly, it doesn’t look like that’s slowing down anytime soon. That was exactly why I wanted to visit Tokyo sooner rather than later and see it for myself. I spent a full week in Tokyo and stayed in…
Tokyo is packed with things to do, with temples, cool neighborhoods, food markets, endless shopping, and then on top of that, multiple observation decks.

Before I booked my trip, I was pretty convinced that Tokyo, and Japan in general, was going to be expensive. Hotels, transport, activities… and sushi every day, obviously. In my head, it all added up very quickly, and I spent a lot of time wondering what a trip to Tokyo would realistically cost. After actually…
One of the questions I get asked most often when people are planning a trip to Tokyo (or Japan in general) is how to get around. Tokyo is huge, and if you’re not used to using public transport at home, it can feel a little intimidating at first, but that is why I’m putting together…
The food in Tokyo is, in my opinion, the main event. More important than the sights, more important than exploring neighborhoods and even more important than the shrines. And honestly, that probably applies to all of Japan. I thought I loved Japanese food before visiting. Turns out I had absolutely no idea. From the moment…
Japan has absolutely blown up as a travel destination over the past few years, and this year it felt like my entire Instagram feed was just cherry blossoms, ramen bowls, and Shibuya at night. Naturally, I had to go too because I couldn’t miss out on the hype, could I? Jokes aside, Japan is genuinely…
