12 good reasons..
Why I NEED to go to Japan! Japan is by far a country at the very top of my must see places. I can't even really tell you when this desire began, but the thought of one day going makes me beyond excited. Not just an -im-excited-for-a-holiday excited, but -this-will-change-my-life excited. Why? Here's why.
1. Temples. I love culture and Japan's culture fascinates me. One side of the coin for that reason is the temples and architecture. Such beautiful creations that make me feel peaceful just looking at them. I love the fact that you can find such beautiful ones right bang in the middle of city chaos too. Fascinating.
2. City life. The other flipside of the coin, the juxtaposition of the bright lights of city life.
3. To see those bizarre vending machines in the flesh-used pants anyone?!
4. Stationary. I retract a previous statement, I DO remember where my obsession for Japan began. It was when I had a Japanese penpal and she sent me THE best stationary, we never had anything as cool as that back then (1997!).
5. Ghibli (museum). I simply can't wait to go see a real cat bus and hug Totoro!
6. Cosplay. I have never done it myself, but I hear it is massive in Japan and you can buy costumes from vending machines!
7. Maiko. I love this part of the Japanese culture and history! The colour, the fabric, the detail.
8. Everything Kawaii!
9. Cat cafes. Being the crazy cat lady that I am, I am instantly attracted to the fact I can go on Holiday and still get my cat fix!
10. Prettiful foods! Yes, I know that's not a word! Japan put so much effort into Bento and the results are breathtaking. This in your lunchbox everyday?! Yes please!
11. Sushi! I love sushi (avocado please) and so would love to try the real deal.
12. Japanese street fashion. I love their eccentricity in fashion and their combinations of items.
