After spending 2 weeks in Japan, we certainly learned a lot! And after reflecting upon our trip to Japan, we have 5 things we wish we would’ve done differently while in Japan, but also 5 things we are glad we did do in Japan.

From Japan travel regrets like not visiting Uji to being glad we went to Okayama, this is what we are happy we did and things we’ll just have to do differently next time!

We’re back from Japan, and we’re breaking down our full 2-week Japan itinerary including stops in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Okayama, Hiroshima, Miyajima, Naoshima, Himeji, Hakone, and then ending back in Tokyo for a baseball game!

This was a fun and unique 14-day Japan itinerary for first timers that combined classic places you need to go at least once and then lesser-visited spots like Okayama and spending more time in Hakone to dive deeper.

Would you go on this trip?

I know what you’re thinking: “Why are we talking about an ultra marathon on a couples travel podcast?”

Well, we actually got a lot of questions after hearing Chris bring up that he was doing this. So, in this podcast episode, we’re doing a race recap on the Burning River Endurance Run and Relay.

Plus, Chris is going to tell you his story, what he’s learned along the way, how he feels after not finishing the race, and more insights into the world of ultra marathons.

There are a lot of destinations where there is just that “one thing” that people plan their trip around. With Peru, it’s Machu Picchu, with France, it’s the Eiffel Tower. But what is something we’d plan a trip around when it comes to every country we’ve visited?

We dive into every country we’ve visited together and list out something we’d plan a trip around (I.e. we haven’t done yet) or something we recommend planning a trip around that we think is the best thing to do in the country (hint: it isn’t Machu Picchu in Peru-although you should see that too!).

Just like any couple, each of us have a different approach to trip planning. While one of us really gets into the major themes and ideas of a trip (think big picture) with a focus on food (AKA Chris), some of us dive deep into logistics like flights, trains, where to stay, etc. (AKA Kat).

In this podcast episode, we discuss our approaches to travel planning when it is our turn to plan and choose the trip, how the other person helps, and how we balance each other out.

What are your approaches to trip planning as a couple?
