In May of 2023, my son Christian Battistini and I set off on our first ever international adventure together. We chose Japan as the destination and spent two magical, action-packed, fully immersive weeks in this culturally rich land steeped in so much beauty and tradition. In today’s episode we share perspectives as mother and son, the cultural insights we gleaned, what we learned from each other and our travel styles, and how the experience genuinely reinforced the strong bond we’ve always had. We also give you a bonus audio tour of each city we visited in Japan and some of our favorite spots. We hope you enjoy this episode and are encouraged in the process to visit Japan for yourselves! Christian and I wish to thank the beautiful souls of Japan for their kindness and hospitality, and Rob Dyer of The Real Japan for creating our travel itinerary and guiding us through the process of trip planning. https://www.lfbcolor.com/
