Hello dear readers, welcome once again to my blog.

Today I will be talking about the country that I would love to visit, and that is that in reality, the election becomes quite difficult because there are several countries that I would like to visit.

But in the end, I definitely keep one, and I'm going to talk to you about Japan.

I'm going to divide it into several sections on why Japan seems so interesting and unique.

To start, I will talk about their natural beauties, which are simply magical, beginning with the well-known cherry blossom trees, or Sakura, where every spring the whole country becomes pink and white during the Hanami, which is the observation of flowers.

For example, in Tokyo, the parks fill with people sitting under cherry trees, and it is really a site known as a place for lovers because couples fall in love during those times. It is a beauty.

Another of the impressive places of Japanese beauties is Mount Fuji, which is the sacred volcano that is the symbol of serenity, and when in winter the snowy peak of Fuji is truly a sight to behold.

Another place is the Bamboo forests of Arashiyama in Kyoto. Walking among all those bamboo trees and listening to the sound of the wind between them, I have read and seen that it is almost an experience of another spiritual level. One feels in another place, so I would love to be able to have and live that experience in Kyoto, walking among the bamboo forests.

The Okinawa islands, with their white sand beaches and turquoise waters, are a beauty, in addition to the fauna that is there.

And well, there is also Hokkaido's winter aurora, with places like Furano, where there is snow and landscapes that are truly magical, with trees full of frost.

These are the parts of the beauties of Japan that I would love to see.

There is also this cultural aspect that makes Japan so elegant, intense, and deep.

One of the things that I would love to experience is the tea ceremony, where a geisha comes and serves me tea, seeing the meaning behind each movement, the philosophy of beauty in imperfection, which is incredible. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

And of course, seeing the geishas and the maikos in Kyoto, seeing everything that dance is, the way of talking about the geishas seems very impressive.

Enjoying the wooden houses with the sliding doors, all the temples of Kyoto, the Golden Pavilion, all the sanctuaries surrounded by forests, that would really make me feel like a samurai in the midst of all this, as if I were inside a beautiful movie.

And of course, attending the festivals like the Gion Matsuri in Kyoto, with floats, dragons, the Nebuta Matsuri with the figures of lighted paper lanterns, and all the fireworks known as Hanabi, which seem really beautiful to me.

We also have the artistic part of the crafts, like Kintsugi, which is the repair of ceramics with gold, which is very interesting because the scars from the repairs tell the story of that ceramic.

There are also the floral arrangements called Ikebana, which show the balance between heaven, earth, and humanity.

The classic engravings, as beautiful as the works of Hokusai, the Kimonos and Yukatas, which are the clothes used there, with designs that change according to the season. That is something very impressive.

Talking about innovation, I would love to walk through Tokyo at night, through Shibuya, Akihabara, which is the electronic neighborhood with all the Otaku, Pokémon, anime, and neon lights. It is simply futuristic.

Just thinking about it makes me feel excited.

I would love to visit the bullet trains, which are a symbol of advanced design and technology, riding a train at 320 kilometers per hour.

And going to all the themed cafes, like cat cafes or restaurants where a robot serves you. That just seems incredible to me. So, I make an order, and a robot waiter comes and brings me the order. That simply seems amazing.

I would also love to visit the places connected to the spiritual part and nature, the religious part, for example, the Itsukushima Shrine, which has the floating torii gate that appears to come out of the sea during high tide.

The Wakayama, which is the Buddhist monastery in the sacred mountains, and spending a night there seems to me an incredible, fabulous experience.

Visiting the thermal waters, or onsens, I just love it.

It seems to me a fabulous experience because Japan is really an incredible place, a city with very marked seasons.

In spring, there are cherry blossoms; in summer, the festivals; in autumn, the Momiji, the red leaves, which are also magical; and in winter, the snow.

It is an incredible country.

The gastronomy it has is fabulous, the traditional haute cuisine with its condiments and the way the dishes are presented is simply fabulous.

The Japanese hospitality, or omotenashi, is very legendary. They have a great respect for other people.

And what I would like to visit are the art islands, Naoshima and Teshima, where art merges with nature.

And the part where the monkeys, the macaques, bathe in the thermal waters in the snow, I think is something incredible, a surreal and magical scene.

What I can highlight from Japan is really another of the things that I like, which is the forest baths, or Shinrin-yoku, which is the practice of connecting with nature to heal the mind and body.

And the concept of mono no aware, which celebrates everything ephemeral, the feeling towards the ephemeral, like the ephemeral beauty of cherry blossoms.

Japan is a country where there is great respect, where people are silent and respect the space of each person. It is a technologically very advanced country with a philosophy of life that, from everything I have read, fits perfectly with my way of being.

I have always said that I should have been born in Japan and not in Latin America, that I was thrown into the wrong country because all their traditions and their way of life fit directly with me.

If I decided to change my nationality and had the option to do so, I would surely choose to be a Japanese citizen.

So, for all of this and more, I like Japan, and without the slightest doubt, I would be delighted to move and live in Japan.

In fact, I envy a neighbor of mine who managed to travel to Japan through the Japanese Embassy and brought his whole life there.

He currently lives in Japan, and that is one of my life dreams.
