To Tokyo we go!!

I have some super exciting news. I booked my first proper holiday with Matt this year and we are off to Tokyo in May. Our big Singapore trip had to be cancelled last year which was a real shame and our 11 year anniversary is fast approaching and we are yet to have a big blow out holiday abroad just the two of us.

We decided last year that we wanted to go to Tokyo and decided that in the New Year we were just going to take the plunge and book it. We are out there for 10 days in total and I am really hoping to be able to still see some of the cherry blossoms.

I am super excited, but at the moment it is laced with nervousness. This is the first time I will be going to country with such a different culture and language without the support of lectures or family members. I often hide away from the unknown, but this is something I want to do deep down so I am pushing myself to do it.

We have plans while we are there, which include the Studio Ghibli tour, Robot restaurant, shrine festival, lots of shopping and Tokyo tower. We have lots of other things I think we will be adding to our list but I can’t wait to go and experience it all. We are staying in an air bnb in Shibuya a 5 minute walk from the famous Shibuya crossing.

Now it is just the count down to sit through and some serious saving and planning! I seriously cannot wait for May to come around!
