What makes a Japanese meal tastes even better? When you enjoy it with a pair of nice Japanese chopsticks of course! 😉
I’m giving away TWO (2) sets of beautiful and elegant Japanese chopsticks (His & Hers in a box) which I bought from a chopstick store in Asakusa, Tokyo (read my travel post). What they look like? Well, they’ll be a surprise as the store has nicely packed and wrapped the pairs of chopsticks in a box before I was able to take a picture… Hope the winners will enjoy these beautiful chopsticks!

I want to visit Kyoto first during the cherry blossom season!
My first trip overseas was to Japan when I was 14. I stayed with a host family in Kyoto and it was my favourite city. The history and the feel of it, the food too though I had no idea what anything was back then. I still remember having the bento my host family packed for me at Kiyomizu-dera.
I have never gone to japan. So I would like to visit Hiroshima and
see Mt, Fujii.
I would start with Tokyo 😀
I haven’t been to Japan yet, but my first stop would be Tokyo. I have a lot of places I want to see, and I want to see as much as possible, but I would still go to Tokyo first. I’m a big fan of Arashi so one of the first things I’d do is visit the johnny’s shop. I know it’s in other cities too, but I want to see Tokyo first. To see what a big city looks like kind of 😉
I have never visted, but the first place i would like to go when I do is Osaka. Its looks and sounds so lively when friends tell me of their visits.
I have never been to Japan, but I would like to visit Mount Fuji , because in many folk tales of Japan Mount Fuji plays a part and I love to know about all the myths and folk tales, In short which has magic in it.
Followed on instagram as well!
I was actually born in Okinawa, Japan (military) and I do plan on seeing it once again! my husband’s grandmother is in Tokyo and we are planning to visit her within the next year! should be wonderful!
My Family lived in Okinawa, in Ginowan on a Marine Base for 3 years and our favorite city was in Naha . I loved how laid back all the people were and how pretty the architecture and statues they had there. The Shuri Castle and the Naha Tug of war (which is one of the largest tug of wars in the world). The Food is awesome too. Best noodles are at the Ryukyu Ramen TONDOU!!!!!
I just liked your Facebook page, it looks yummy!
I was in Kyoto in May and I absolutely loved it! I have not visited any other cities there, so currently, Kyoto is the city that I enjoyed the most.
Hi. Thanks for your article. I really loved Nikko in autumn.
I loved Tokyo it was so awesome I didn’t want to leave now I’m just trying to get back!!!!
