Favourite destination & why

If I had to pick one I would have to say Japan, the culture is so unique which means even the most basic task like catching public transport or ordering food is an eye-opening experience. I did a 5 day walk through southern Japan called the Kumano Kodo staying with local villagers in the small towns along the way. The contrast between the cities and the countryside is huge, the people were so friendly, the food was delicious, and the scenery was incredible.
