Blog for those, who love to travel, and those, who would like to start doing it.
A real travel is definitely not an all-inclusive vacation with a travel agency. For me, the travel is something definitively organized by oneself. I won’t introduce here the other divisions because something becoming a travel happens on the basis of subjective feelings. For one travel can be a bike ride to the lake 10km away, and for another a year spent in the Mongolian taiga.
For me, until I got more experienced in the traveling, a travel was considered as spending a few days in Vienna, a short trip to Berlin, etc. Now I wonder if safe two weeks spent in Ukraine can be called a travel? And ultra-safe Japan? Maybe, in this case, three weeks of traveling by car around the United States? It is difficult for me to answer this question. One thing is certain – no matter the time and safety level, it has an amazing adventure. Therefore, I decided that journey is a journey in search of adventure!
Wishing you many wonderful trips and beautiful adventures, I invite you to read!

Sometimes they know nothing about the culture of Japan and behave outrageously, sometimes they lurk in the corner while taking pictures, so as not to destroy the […]
When I visit a country, I like to know how does it taste like. Typically, before traveling, I obtain knowledge about the typical delicacies of the culture I am about to visit. When I am there already, I visit the restaurants, pubs, street stalls or even grocery stores. Although I did not find any Japanese crazy-flavored KitKat’s limited edition, the […]
We bought our tickets on the internet. On the day of the tournament we got up very early, and were very excited – a live sumo tournament is a real treat! The more, that only six tournaments are held every year (three in Tokyo, one in Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka). We arrived at Ryōgoku Kokugikan, of course, by train. Together […]
During my walks in Tokyo or Yokohama I witnessed many manifestations of love given by the Japanese to animals. I saw a stray cat in a park in the center of Tokyo, which was caressed by a group of young people. The cat did not fear them – it stoically allowed them to caress its fur. I was honored to […]
