I'm back home now . My 3 weeks is sadly up. I started in Tokyo and finished up there too. Had about a week or so in total there. Loved it.Nice one. Are you heading to Tokyo later?
Hiroshima an essential cultural experience when in Japan I reckon, the memorial and museum is very full on and really makes you think and puts everything into perspective, I remember being with my partner and as we came out of it we both just sat by the memorial in silence for about 10 minutes.About to leave Kyoto for Naoshima (Art Iand), we are staying at Okayama, we will be staying here 2 nights and do Hiroshima day trip as well.
From here we go to Tokyo, the snow then back to Tokyo. Osaka has been the highlight thus far.

Naoshima is very cool! The art galleries are really interesting, hope you like your time there. Will you have time in Hiroshima to go to Miyajima? It's well worth it, if you can.
Make sure you rug up tomorrow, it's going to be a cold one. Snow is forecast!
Geez you are travelling around a bit. Osaka my favourite city there too. Enjoy.

Hiroshima was amazing! Snow was beautiful. In Tokyo currently, about to go to the sumo wrestling.

Any love for Kobe? Close to Osaka, mountains and beaches close to the city, foreign settlements and easy to walk around. Travel into the country side and have a look at Takeda Castle ruins (Machu Pichu of Japan).

Favourite place is still probably Kyushu. Gunkanjima, Mt Aso, Sakurajima and Kumamoto Castle.
What is the best way to get from Narita airport to Shinjuku station.
Train?
Mind you, this is my first time in Tokyo and I will probably have no idea about city bearings or if there are any signs in English.
