All our tokyo days are flexible and we’re gonna play it by ear. We’re gonna revisit neighbourhoods we didn’t have enough time in, and I’m also open to suggestions for new stuff.

About us: 30-something active couple. Wide variety of interests including history, temples, pop culture, music, food, games, nature.

Edit: I forgot to mention thrifting! I already have a couple of bookoff super bazars planned and open to more suggestions

Thanks a lot!
