I was so excited about going to Japan, but a little apprehensive at the same time as it was the first time I’ve visited a country where I didn’t speak the language, and didn’t have anyone who could translate for me. However that little barrier became something that made me love the country so much more – I had so much more fun because of the fact that I couldn’t understand a thing!
Now I avidly follow some Japanese baristas, so I had a small list of places I could go to try out some coffee. Since my visit, there have been so many more places that have popped up so that a revisit is definitely required.
