Japan has a way of staying with you.
Hi, I’m Neil Patil and after years of travelling to Japan, I’m finally here to tell you about a place that’s quietly shaped me.

I’ve visited Japan over five times, and each time it feels like opening a brand-new chapter in a story I never want to stop reading.

In this episode, I’m sharing 5 personal wonders that keep calling me back:
🌸 The konbini culture that redefines convenience
🗻 The sacred silence of Mount Fuji
🍜 A food journey that goes way beyond sushi
🤼‍♂️ The power and poetry of sumo
☕ And Japan’s wildly imaginative cafés

This one’s close to my heart.
Let’s hear it, shall we?
