Two of my favourite places in the world.

Tokyo actually felt a lot less like the claustrophobic megalopolis it's often described as being. I stayed in an Airbnb in Shimokitazawa, (just a few short stops from Tokyo's main train station) and it felt distinctly village-y.

Because of all the self-imposed order and politeness everywhere it's an extremely pleasant place to visit.
