Creator's Key Takeaways

We live full-time on the Villa Odyssey residential cruise ship and we share all things cruise ports and all things cruise life.

One scary thing we walked up on on our very first day in Osaka, there was a huge uh fire and department and police presence.

We're getting used to these small rooms after living in 140 square ft on a cruise ship.

Japan has more KitKat flavors than anywhere else with over 300 unique offerings.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Visit the egg section in Japanese grocery stores for unique sandwiches
βœ“Check out the KitKat store for unique flavors
βœ“Try the local street food in Osaka
βœ“Use the tourist information center when ticketing machines are complicated
