Japan Diaries Ep. 1: Tokyo & Nagano Adventure! 🇯🇵✨

Welcome to the first episode of our Japan travel vlog (and impromptu honeymoon)! If you’re new here, I’m Atsede—a therapist, yoga teacher, and retreat facilitator who loves to travel and share this side of my life. When I’m not holding space for others, I’m exploring new places, experiencing different cultures, and indulging in life’s little joys. And what better way to do that than in Japan, a country we absolutely love? 🇯🇵❤️

Grab a snack, pour yourself a drink, and settle in—this is going to be a fun one! 🍿🥤

We kick off our trip with two days in Tokyo, staying at the beautiful *K5 Hotel*, a stylish and cozy spot in the city. While in Tokyo, we make the most of our time by eating incredible food, visiting some amazing *coffee shops*, and going on a mission to find the best *gachapon* (capsule toy) machines! From hidden gems to bustling streets, we dive into the energy of the city before heading to our next stop.

After Tokyo, we take the train to *Nagano*, where we explore a different side of Japan. We visit the **Spirited Away-style house**, a breathtaking spot that looks straight out of the movie. Then, we head to **Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park** to see the famous wild monkeys! While there wasn’t any snow and they weren’t bathing in the hot spring, they were still hanging out nearby, giving us an up-close look at their daily life in the park.

Of course, no trip is complete without *hotel room tours*, so we’ll show you where we’re staying along the way.

So sit back, relax, and come along for the adventure—this is just the beginning of an unforgettable journey! 🏙️🏯🍜 #JapanVlog #Tokyo #Nagano #SnowMonkeys #SpiritedAway
