Now that I'm back home from my work trip, I'm getting ready for my vacation. We're finally going to Japan 😁 This is a trip years in the making. My sister and I were actually supposed to go in March 2019 but then COVID-19 hit. Hoping nothing will happen now 🤞🏻. Only 12 days to go.

Our itinerary changed a few times, but it's finally set:
✅️ Tokyo 8 days
✅️ Takayama 1 day
✅️ stopping in Nagoya to see the @kurenai_kai member exhibition (so excited to see everyone's work)
✅️ Kansai region (Osaka, Kyoto, Nara,...)
✅️ Hakone 1 day
✅️ back to Tokyo for 4 days

I've been gathering a list of shops and museums to visit, but I'd love to get all your recommendations of your favorite places, especially cafes and restaurants.

If any embroiderers in Japan would like to meet up, please let me know. I'd love to meet you in person ❤️
