Japan is the only country among over 60 explored that left world traveler Brian Michalski heartbroken to leave. In retracing this glorious five-week adventure, we journey aboard the famous Shinkansen bullet train, following the blooming cherry blossoms. Along the way, we learn about Japan’s unforgettable cuisine, rich history, and vibrant culture. Michalski intermingles interactions with locals and striking original photography to transport you to the Land of the Rising Sun.
