Some trips you forget the details…and some you remember in moments like this ✨

Japan looked like:
— Learning to design bonsai from a bonsai master
— Vegan omakase in a tiny village near a Buddhist temple
— Learning to cook Japanese staples with grandmas
— Sunrise chants with Buddhist monks

If Japan is on your list, I'm here to help you design a trip that goes beyond the obvious tourist destinations. Link in bio to get started. 💛

The European hotel research spiral is a special kind of exhausting because the more time you put into it the less confident you feel, and at some point you realize you have seventeen tabs open and a worse sense of what to do than you did two hours ago. 🙃

The conversation where someone tells you what to book and why, based on actually knowing the properties and knowing how you travel, takes about fifteen minutes and closes all the tabs permanently. 🤯 That's what I'm here for.

➡️The "I want to see as much as possible" itinerary is one of the most common things I talk people out of, because covering ground and actually experiencing a place are two very different trips and only one of them you'll want to repeat.

I said what I said. 😉

There's a version of Japan that smells like salt air, where you're eating ramen at 8 am and thinking I never want to leave (!!)

Annnnnnd there's the version where you're exhausted, overscheduled, and wondering what all the fuss was about.

The difference is just knowing a few things first.

LIKE:

⭐️ A day or two in Fukui to visit artisan workshops and chant with Buddhist monks in the mountains.

⭐️ that getting out of the Golden Route changes the whole feel of the place

⭐️ skipping a sumo show - unless you can get tickets to an actual match, they're incredibly cheesy and touristy.

DM me and let's chat about planning your own trip to Japan - complete with all of the insider details I wish I had before my first trip. 👇

I am back from Japan and WOW what an amazing experience that was. 🏯🎌

From Tokyo Disneyland all the way down to Kyoto, I got to see and do so many unique things. The culture of Japan was truly remarkable, but it was the PEOPLE that stole my heart.

I met so many lovely folks along the way - a bonsai master, grandmas that taught me to roll sushi, a washi paper maker, a crafter of Japanese knives, even just the staff at every hotel - they were all so friendly and so eager to show us around and make sure we enjoyed ourselves. 🍡

A special thank you to for inviting me on this trip and showing me all of the fabulous options available to my clients. 🎎

Japan is so popular lately - if visiting the Land of the Rising Sun is on your travel wish list, reach out and let's chat about how we can make it happen.

The right family trip exists.

It just takes someone who knows which questions to ask and which destinations can deliver on all of them at the same time. (That's the part I love figuring out!)

Which trip would you plan? Drop it in the comments.
