Good day to all of you. At the end of next month I will be moving to Sasebo Japan. However, before I reach my ultimate destination I want to take a two week trip from Tokyo down to Sasebo. Here’s a rough itinerary of what my trip is going to look like.
First I want to make sure I’m not trying to fit in too much. Also wondering if maybe I’m not spending enough time in Tokyo.
Mostly what I like doing when I travel is just walking and exploring. I’m not a “I have to go here, here, and here” kind of person. I want to just see things as I find them. However, I think it’s nice to have general suggestions of things to do if I’m at a loss. So, a lot of the destinations I have listed in the various cities on my itinerary are mostly suggestions.
Before I ramble on too much let me know what you think.
