  4. I want to start with some exotic countries like Thailand. I did a bit of research on Japan, seems like not much interesting things there though.

    1. I suppose it depends on what one is looking for. I think Japan is a great place for visiting temples and nature (parks and blossoms), and for soaking in the positives in the Japanese culture.

      Thailand could be a good start and close enough too.
