Curious about what it’s like to solo travel in Japan?
I receive a lot of questions and DMs about my experience trekking it to Japan alone, so I put together a video of all the common things you need to know before jumping on a plane by yourself!
From choosing single-friendly accomodation and eating out alone, to how to take photos by yourself and my tips on managing stressful situations solo, I hope this video helps any soon-to-be solo travellers!
Have a question I didn’t cover? Share it in the comments below and I’d be happy to help!
