My opinion about my trip to Tokyo, Japan, and some last photos from my accommodations and the streets

I can already say that I don’t see any reason to come back again—even to another city in Japan. My main goal was to visit all the major places I had planned in Tokyo, and I basically achieved that. The only places I didn’t visit were DisneySea and teamLab Planets. To be honest, I didn’t feel 100% motivated to go there anyway, and another reason was that tickets were completely sold out. If I had the chance to buy them, I probably would have gone.

Morning in Tokyo streets at 5 AM. On my way to the metro station

I think Japan is fine for a one-time vacation, but I realized that this country is just not for me, even for a short stay. I’m not exactly sure why, but Asian countries seem to push me away a bit, and I felt somewhat uncomfortable during my time there. When I compare it to European countries I’ve visited, the difference is clear. In Europe, I usually feel comfortable and relaxed, like I could stay longer and live my normal daily life there. Here, it was the opposite. I had a similar feeling when I visited Thailand and Vietnam, so maybe it’s something about the atmosphere. From my experience so far, European countries suit me much better.

Overall, I’m really happy that I saw everything with my own eyes. Japan is definitely a unique, clean, and well-organized country. But at the same time, I realized that it’s not a place where I feel completely comfortable. For me, it was a one-time experience where I experienced Japanese culture for a week and gained something important from it.

My opinion about my trip to Tokyo, Japan, and some last photos from my accommodations and streets

I already can say that I don't see any reasons to come back again. Even though it can be another city in Japan. My main goal was to watch and visit all major places that I preferred in Tokyo. Of course I realized all of it completely and visited all places, except DisneySea and teamLab Planets. But in reality, I didn't have feelings about visiting them 100%, and the next reason I just couldn't buy tickets was that everything was sold. If I had the opportunity to buy tickets, I probably would buy tickets and visit them.

Well, I think Japan isn't bad for one time of vacation, but I realized this specific country is still not for me, even for a short time. I don't know why, but all Asian countries push me away, and I felt myself a bit uncomfortable during my stay. For example, I can compare it with European countries that, during my trips, I felt comfortable in, and I even thought I didn't want to leave them. I just wanted to stay there and spend my day as I would on my regular days. But here, it was the opposite, it happened again, because when I visited Thailand, Vietnam, and others, I felt the same feelings. Maybe it's related to that unique atmosphere that is present here or something else. To be honest, I realized that European countries are the best from my travel experiences.

Overall, I'm so happy that I saw everything with my eyes. Japan is definitely a unique, clean, and organized country. But at the same time I realized that it's not a place where I felt comfortable. For me it was just a one-time experience, where I tried Japanese culture during the one week and got important experience.
