Featured Travel Diva
Destination(s): Japan (Tokyo and Yokohoma)
Not only did a friend’s desire to travel to Japan inspire
Tara Lance, a medical coordinator, to tag along to learn more about spreading Jehovah’s word
and love, she also discovered new found beauty in the exotic Asian country
and developed great friendships along the way! Read this Q&A about how this Travel Diva
took great heights to enhance her spirituality and create unforgettable
memories.
1. Destination: Tokyo and Yokohoma, Japan
2. Reason for Travel: An International
Jehovah’s Witness convention
3. Number of Travel Days: 18
4. Estimated Flight Time: 10 ½ hours (from
Los Angeles)
5. First Impression: Japan is extremely clean! It (Tokyo) is similar to New York City, but it
is less expensive.
6. Featured Hotel: Shinagawa Prince Hotel. The hotel was absolutely beautiful! It has many
accommodations such as an on-site bowling alley, a mall, and a large eatery. And the staff was very friendly!
7. Cultural Experience: Japanese people
are very shy. The public transportation
system (trains) is very quiet and everyone stays to themselves. But despite their quiet demeanor, Japanese are
very fashionable!
8. Favored Attractions: I love Tokyo’s
SKYTREE! (observation deck and restaurant). The new, beautiful building offers
great views of the entire city. The
Japanese gardens were stunning and the Edo Tokyo Museum has become a favorite.
The museum holds a great amount of
history and beauty!
9. Best Dining Experience: The fish
markets have the best sushi!
10. What/who encouraged you to travel to Japan?
A friend encouraged me to come along with her.
I am so glad I made the decision to go.
Now, I have new friends that I look forward to visiting again. I miss it (Japan) so much!
Tara, thank
you for sharing your Japanese experience and for paving the way for more Travel Divas to take flight!
