next on the japanese trip – osaka!

Following a rather raucous night at the Park Hyatt Tokyo (you can can immerse yourself in our sozzled experience here), James and I hopped on the bullet train and travelled a casual 504km to Osaka – a city infamous for its food and drink scene.

Which we were finally able to endure after what I would call one of the ‘top 10 hangovers of my life’. Hurrah!

Expect castles, street food and helpful morsels of information including how the bloody hell do you use a Japanese laundry?

what’s flying with aeroflot really like?

The ‘deadliest airline in the world’ has got its act together in recent years but many are still reluctant to fly Aeroflot.

Yet at £258 for a return flight to Tokyo, we were willing to give it a go.

So, just how bad was it?

here begins the epic japan holiday vlogs!

Everyone loves to talk about how expensive Japan is and so I thought it would be a great chance to flex my money saving muscles and rustle up an epic trip of:

  • 10+ nights
  • A bullet train tour of Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto
  • A lush last night hotel stay
  • Oh, and let’s throw in going at the PRICIEST time in the Japanese calendar – cherry blossom season!

First up, it’s all about the flight. AND WHAT A BARGAIN IT WAS!!!
