O
ur trip to Japan was suppose to originally take place in April 2011. Back then I was working full time and didn't really have either the time nor the energy to plan a trip so I reached out to a company called Samurai Tours and worked with them to conceive a two week trip for my brother and I. We were scheduled to arrive into Tokyo on April 9. Barely a month earlier, the earthquake that was followed by a devastating tsunami, hit the country and we had to cancel our trip. I was so incredibly disappointed that we didn't get to go but grateful that the country managed to recover from that unfortunate event.
