The Japan Episode: My Honest Take on Food, Culture & Travel from Tokyo, Kyoto & Hokkaido
Description
So, I went to Japan. And if you’ve ever traveled across the world, you know things don’t always go as planned. This episode was actually recorded twice (thanks to a little tech disaster), but maybe that was meant to be—because now, you’re getting the unfiltered, full-circle version of my trip.
From snowy onsens in Hokkaido to late-night bites in Tokyo, I’m sharing it all:
- Flying business class vs. the reality of jet lag (because, let’s be honest, it hits hard)
- Hokkaido’s magic—skiing, soaking in onsens, and the kind of quiet that makes you exhale
- Meals I’ll never forget—hidden gems like Somoza and Rakuichi Soba, plus why food is the best way to connect with a place
- Kyoto’s timeless beauty—what it’s really like to experience traditional Japanese hospitality. My favorite restaurants Koke and Raiz.
- Tokyo’s electric energy—shopping, eating, and just soaking in the chaos of it all
More than anything, this trip reminded me why I love traveling: the unexpected moments, the little lessons, and the pure joy of saying yes to new experiences. If you’re planning a trip to Japan (or just need a little inspiration), I hope this episode gives you something to take with you.
