About this blog

Since the age of 13, I have visited more than 30 countries around the world as well as some great sites in Japan. When I travel overseas, everything looks interesting, even if it looks boring from the natives point of view. In that meaning, there is possibility to find something interesting even in my neighbourhood, if I looked at it from a foreigner's point of view. So I determined to try some tourist attractions in Japan with Lonely Planet Japan, a guide for international travellers, and Japan-Guide.com on the Internet. Then I knew which one is worth a visit for foreigners, particularly as one day excursions from Nagoya. Thanks to this attempt, I was able to visit some places where I would have never imagined to do before.
