Konnichiwa Japan

Having traveled to many parts of Asia, Japan has quickly become a favourite for many reasons! The culture, the people, the shopping and of course the amazing food!

Shibuya and Harajuku are a must for shopping and of course to see the colorfully dressed Harajuku girls!



The huge department store Shibuya 109 has a vast array of fashion & accessories.

Want to eat at the restaurant that inspired Quentin Tarantino's famous Kill Bill film, and in particular the battle scene?! Then head to Roppongi Hills and check out the amazing food & decor at Gonpachi.

If you are missing a taste of Europe, then Boulangerie Jean Francois at Shibuya Mark City is a French bakery full of breads and pastries that taste so authentic you forget you are in Japan!

The newest beauty trends as we know always start in Asia, so the Japanese pharmacies and local shops are a place where you can spend hours! From snail masks to beauty collagen drinks be sure to be blown away!

If you are thinking what time of the year to go to Japan, then Sakura season has to be it. The season of blooming cherry blossom trees is celebrated around Japan (March/April time) & they even have a special Sakura Starbucks!

Safe Travels!
