Words, places, and things.
Whenever I travel, I often come across people who are in the country I’m visiting for weeks! They’re usually from Europe where the paid vacation time seems to be plenty. I'm someone who works a “9-5:30” in the U.S., has 15 days of paid vacation every year (and 5 sick days cough, cough) and who... Continue Reading →
I recently traveled to Tokyo and Kyoto in Japan, and let me tell you, they are not short on modes of public transportation. You can take the Japan Railways (JR) trains, the Metro subway, the JR and other local buses, and others. But what about traveling between major cities in Japan? If you want to... Continue Reading →
“Just let it go.” We’ve all heard this phrase one time or another.
