I know how Colombus felt…The feeling of finding another world.

 

Doesn’t sound like a reasonable idea at first because that means I have to subsequently return to tiny rooms and whose trains makes you thank God for every square meter of breathing space. With that in mind, it’s easy to see why people choose to come to Tokyo as a tourist instead of being a resident.

 

I’ve spend a third of my life traveling, from being born and raised in Indonesia, I also went to collage and lived in Australia for five years. I was also very blessed to have to opportunity to visit over 30 countries. As I am still currently learning my trade in society, however I believe that I am experienced enough nonetheless. Sufficiently experienced enough to understand what it takes to get Tokyo to be one of the most inspiring place in the world for innovators, entrepreneurs, and businesses. To be honest, I adore Europe as it has a rich history, but personally I felt that Asia has more texture and Tokyo certainly is on the top of that category.

 

Tokyo’s prosperity and stability is inarguable as it has everything that a city needs: excitement, comfort, beauty and fun. That is why I look at this city from both a tourist and a resident’s point of view. Historical sites are portrayed, heart-warming views are appreciated and festivals are celebrated. So don’t get lost in translation, just browse through and imagine the feeling of being in the world that I am in.
