Intro to my solo trip to Japan

Hello, or should I say Kon'nichiwa. I'm writing this in the lounge before my ANA flight taking me to Japan for the first time. Having covered my Europe trip last year (which was my first ever trip report) I thought I'd make this a regular thing when I travel. While much of it may have been covered before in other trip reports, maybe this report will give an updated perspective for anyone else looking to head to Japan in 2025 on a solo trip.

I'll be covering my return Business Class flights with ANA between Sydney and Tokyo, navigating transfers between the domestic and international terminal in Sydney, Accommodation in Tokyo and Kyoto, Train passes and general day-trips and activities including loads of restaurants during my 10 day trip to Japan and loads of tips and tricks along the way.

To start off, this trip came together thanks to a great points buying promotion in September last year with Avianca's frequent flyer program: Lifemiles. I'll cover some basics of the program and the ups and downs of buying and booking with this program (trust me there's a few).

So stay tuned for trip report instalments, I'll write when I have a bit of down time so apologies in advance if I post in dribs and drabs.
