My partner, Monika, had dreamed about visiting Japan for over 10 years, and in 2023, her dream finally came true.

In this episode, I interviewed her about:

- Her exposure to Japan growing up - Culture shocks - The expectations vs. reality

She is a graphic designer, so it was fascinating to hear her perspective on the design and graphic aspects of Japan that surprised her.

Please consider watching our youtube video to see what we have experienced in Japan.
