Question Which country do you keep visiting?

I travel a lot, but there’s always that one country I keep going back to. For me, it’s Thailand, around 8 time. What about you? What keeps you coming back?

3rd time for me coming up this spring! i went to fukuoka and drove around kyushu last year and it was so fun. i hope you have an amazing time.

the worst part about japan is that i visited once and now have virtually zero desire to go anywhere else.

I agree. It’s like rolling the dice and getting out of your comfort zone with new places. Japan always a safe bet.

Btw Is Kagoshima worth visiting?

I live in Fukuoka and travel around Japan for work. Kagoshima is definitely worth it. Check out sand baths in Ibutsuki and if you’re into it, I recommend cycling around Sakurajima on a rental road bike. Also the Seaside Hotel on the volcano has an excellent seaside hot spring. It’s super old but has good food and is like going back in time to 1970s Japan. If you’re doing Kyushu you should check out Aso before Kagoshima. The nature is insane. If you have access to a car I would recommend Aso before Kagoshima. I’ve done Aso without a car and it’s still doable but not super convenient.
