Today, we’re diving into one of my past travels in the land of the Rising Sun back in May of 2018 to the island of Okunoshima (大久野島), better known as “Usagishima” (うさぎ島) or the Bunny Island!
I am very excited about this month’s Featured Artist because today, we’re diving back into the world of talented Seiyu (声優 ), or Japanese Voice Actors, to spotlight Daisuke Ono (小野 大輔)!
Today’s post is about one of my recent adventures in Japan in the beautiful city of Hiroshima (広島). I never got the chance to go to Hiroshima while living in Japan. So in May when I went back, I made sure to add it to my list of places to visit.
“So what is there to do in Tokyo?” Today, we’ll be focusing on places related to a reason that perhaps makes Japan a mecca land for millions of people around the world: Anime and Manga. Here are the top Tokyo spots for the anime fan!
Today, I’m sharing with you all my experience at Itsukushima (厳島), more popularly referred to as “Miyajima” (宮島) or “Shrine Island”, located southwest of the city of Hiroshima (広島). As one of the “Nihon Sankei” (日本三景), or “Three Views of Japan” coined by the scholar Hayashi Gaho (1618-1688), scholars consider it one of the most scenic and beautiful sites in all of Japan… and that’s an understatement!
Today is indeed a unique day in the history of the world, more specifically in the country of Japan. Yesterday marked the end of a literal era, the Heisei Era (meaning “peace everywhere”), of Japan.

Today, we’re talking Bucket Lists, which are a bit of a passion of mine. But more specifically, we’re talking about why you should have them and how to create them.
I’m going to touch on one of my favorite tricks related to travel. This time, to make traveling more affordable: getting an airline/hotel credit card. Specifically in my case, the United Card.
