Trip Consultation (60 min, online)

Not sure where to go, or what to prepare? Talk it through with someone who lives here.

For anyone who wants to come to Japan but is drowning in information. Over a video call, we unpack what you actually want out of the trip.

Season, fitness, budget, interests. We lay out the constraints, then I tell you what is realistically doable and where your plan is overreaching. Not a guidebook summary — the view from inside.

Note: I do not book transport or accommodation on your behalf. This is information and judgement to help you book your own.
