These are the only videos I took in Japan because the second half of the trip I was sick. The flu knocked me out for weeks after I came back and I’m finally going through all my content. That being said, Japan is amazing and I want to go back and see more. 🧡🇯🇵

2024 was a year for travel. This year will be a year that I will never forget because I finished my goal of visiting all 50 states before I turned 30! Next year we start working on my new goal of 7 continents before 40. I have a lot of international travel coming up next year and I can’t wait! I hope the new year brings good health and happiness to you and your family. Safe travels. Cheers!🥂
