Journal Entry... There's a kind of craze for Japan, and all things Japanese, as of late. Why not jump on the bandwagon? Traveling to Japan was tempting really. It's merely four hours by plane, from Manila. Around November is autumn's peak-- one of two memorable seasons in Japan. And my birthday falls in November... Dang! My Japan travel turned out to be one unforgettable trip to remember. I'd surely put the Japan travel on repeat, if I must, given a 5-year Japan Visa stamp on my passport, and it'll always be just a short flight away.
