We couldn't think of a better way to kick off our FIRST time in Japan than in the country's lively city of Tokyo! 🇯🇵 Over 4 days we checked off every item from our Tokyo bucket list, from eating some classic Japanese foods, trying out sumo wrestling, walking the famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing, seeing a Japanese baseball game, immersing ourselves in art, and SO much more!

👋🏼 About us
Hi y’all! We’re Adam, Kathryn, and Kona, an adventurous married couple (+ pup!) living on the road in our self-converted sprinter van! You can often find us driving all around the US and Canada, scoping out the best coffee shops, eating tacos and ice cream (we're a 5+ taco and 2+ scoop household), and enjoying nature.

We help travelers spend less time (and stress!) planning their trip and more time enjoying it! Our detailed travel guides, YouTube videos, and travel resources share the must-visit local eats, popular and off the beaten path sights, and tons of tips to make planning your next adventure a whole lot easier.

Note: We’ve linked a handful of items so you can see exactly which products we take with us. Full disclosure--if you click on these links and make a purchase, we get a small commission at no extra cost to you. We will only ever recommend products we truly love, actually use during our adventures, and think you can benefit from too!
