Any recs are welcome. I'm pretty flexible outside of the Ryokan stay date.
Couple of things I'm curious about is,
Is Kanazawa worth the one night/ Half day?
Do I have enough time to go to Kagoshima? I'm thinking not, although the volcanic sands would be cool
Maybe I'm staying too long in Seoul, should I shorten by one day an committ to something else in Japan
