Japan is not just about Pokemon, anime, samurai and sushi. It’s the country of contradictions: Clean streets and artificial waste islands, strict rules and order and vending machines with used clothes and underwear. You can find all of this in Tokyo! I visited the Eastern Times Square, seen Japan’s own Statue of Liberty and learned how Tokyo is different from New York. Join me to find out why you have to travel to Japan, love anime and appreciate your local river.
