I'm Eleanor, one of the writers here. Japan has captivated me for years, not just for its food, but for its rich culture. Exploring shrines, festivals, and traditions fills me with joy. From cherry blossom festivals to Geisha ceremonies in Kyoto, every experience deepens my love for Japan. On my first trip, I was hooked by the cuisine—sushi, udon, tempura, and ramen. I hope to call Japan home one day. Join me in unraveling the wonders of Japanese life!
