Our INCREDIBLE 72 Hours In KYOTO (most beautiful city in Japan?)
This was our third trip to Japan and out of the 100 countries we've been to, we think Japan takes the number 1 spot for most unique and distinct!
Before you comment "there's no such thing as MORE or MOST unique"... We know, we just mean that Japan is the country with the least in common with other countries and with the most distinct culture and feel.
We are Oskar & Dan, two boys from Sweden who decided to change the course of our lives, drop out of university, and live life full-time🧔🏻👱🏻♂️ We've been together for eight years and have been traveling together pretty much since day one✈️ We're trying to see and learn as much about the world as possible before we settle down somewhere in the world👨👨👧👦 In 2022, we completed our goal of visiting 100 countries at the age of 25🌍 Check our YouTube About page for more details👨🏼🤝👨🏻❤️

Japan was country 38, first visited in 2018🌍
We started our trip in the Keihanshin region, which is Japan's second largest metropolitan area after Tokyo, made up of the cities Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Nara, and other smaller ones. After eight days around this region, we hopped on the Shinkansen bullet train twice, first to Hiroshima and then to Fukuoka. From there, we took a boat to Busan, South Korea (we were SO excited about this ferry ride between Japan and Korea!) before catching a train to Seoul and flying home from there!
Thank you for watching!🙏😍
