Crazy, modern, traditional, colourful, paradoxical, harmonious Japan. My most vivid memory of Easter sunday 2012 is being stuck in Hiroshima without any money and none of my 3 cash cards working - I have to admit there was a slight moment of panic. But in the end, my dad wired me some money to Osaka and I spent the rest of the day on lovely Miya-Jima island, hiking up Mt. Misen and enjoying the cherry blossoms. And then there was the daytrip to Kamakura with a traditional Onsen-session, the view from the 52nd floor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building, Shibuya crossing, the Kumano Kodo hiking trail, the funny school uniforms, green tea and azuki bean flavoured ice cream, and much much more. Go to Japan, it's amazing!
