Japan 🇯🇵

Japan is situated in East Asia, where centuries-old traditions meet cutting-edge modernity in a landscape that shifts from sacred spaces of quiet beauty to neon-lit skylines. From Tokyo’s fast-paced innovation and quiet shrines to Osaka’s bold cuisine and lively areas, each city in the country offers a distinct atmosphere. Kyoto, with its ancient temples, tranquil gardens, and iconic bamboo forests, offers an escape into Japan’s rich cultural heart. Okinawa’s subtropical islands beckon with their turquoise waters and laid-back vibe. Meanwhile, Fukuoka, with its vibrant food scene and coastal charm, blends the energy of a bustling port city with the allure of nearby mountains and hot springs. Japan invites working travellers into a lifestyle of contrast and calm, where stepping away from your work leads to sampling matcha desserts, wandering ancient castles, soaking in steamy onsen or exploring lively markets and lantern-lit alleyways.
