A Colorful Journey of Japan through Culture, Food, Fashion, and More
Embark on an adorable manga-style illustrated adventure to Japan and its unique neighbourhoods, delicious street food, and more in this one-of-a-kind travel guide and memoir.
Illustrator Winnie Liu dreamed of exploring Japan since she was a child. In her junior year of college, she received the chance of a lifetime to study abroad there for a semester.
Armed with her pens and sketchbook, she brings her unique lens as an artist, avid foodie, and anime fan to this charming illustrated travel diary. Guides to both popular and under-the-radar neighborhoods of Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto are interspersed with fun anecdotes and crash course guides to daily life in Japan. Winnie shares tips for using slang, eating like a local, and maximising a konbini (convenience store) run!
Filled with cute illustrations, funny commentary, and collages of memorabilia, this delightful travelogue will transport you to Japan!
