Konnichiwa! This is the 3rd Japan trip that I'm leading. The 1st one was in the summer of 2023, and the second one was just last summer. I've been to Mexico, Korea, Taiwan, Spain, and Italy (and counting...). I love traveling! I travel to experience other cultures and try new foods. I love trying out new things and discovering new places.
