3 Days Solo in Tokyo 🇯🇵 | Tokyo Travel Vlog

I took a solo trip to Tokyo for my birthday. I clocked off from work, flew 10 hours, and spent 3 full days exploring Tokyo before flying home and going right back to work. I know it probably looks like all I do is travel, but yes, I have a job. Thankfully, my work schedule gives me enough flexibility to pull off trips like this. So why fly all the way to Tokyo for only 3 days? First… YOLO. I wanted to do something crazy for my birthday, and I figured—why pop bottles and buy a table when I could take a solo trip to Tokyo instead? Second, I didn’t use any PTO. I squeezed the entire trip into my days off. I also wanted to see if 3 days in another country could actually feel like enough. I ate good food, wandered around the city, shopped, worked with a photographer, and got my ears cleaned?! Was flying 10 hours each way for 3 days the smartest recovery decision? Probably not. But I’m so grateful I did it.
