Hello from Lenzen, Germany. We’re halfway between Berlin and Hamburg in a small town along the Elbe. Did you miss us?
It’s been weeks since our last podcast, so we have a lot to talk about. But first, our question of the week: Have you ever traveled to a place to do something that you thought you would like, but ended up not liking?
(We have. We’ll tell you about it in the podcast.)
Okinawa is one of our favorite places in Japan, and we’ll tell you why in this podcast. From Blue Zone menus to our favorite burrito place in American Village, we’ll show you what we found. It is also stunningly beautiful and it feels half a world away from the frenetic pace of Tokyo. (Above is a picture of one of the hotels we saw, Hoshino’s Okinawa property.)
Next stop: Seoul, South Korea. It was our second trip and this time we didn’t waste any time getting to know this fascinating city. We found the best bakeries and coffee shops, where they specialize in extra-strong cafe Americanos. Mmmm. Here’s a picture of Aren at Gyeongbokgung, the former royal palace in Seoul. Please don’t make me pronounce that in the podcast.
It’s great to be back in Germany. We’ve been hiking through a lot of forests, paddling through canals, and exploring wetlands on this trip. I can’t wait to tell you more about it. We’ll have a full report on Germany in our next podcast.
In the meantime, I’d love to get your thoughts on this week’s question: Have you ever traveled to a place to do something that you thought you would like, but ended up not liking?
