  1. In the past couple of years we've discovered the amazingness of Japan and want to share these experiences and learnings with other travelling on a budget. As a former journalist, I want to give you value for your viewing time, and make our videos as informative as possible. This one suggests 20 or so sites to see in Tokyo, many free, and others that don't cost an arm and a leg.
