24 hours to explore Kyoto
On Friday, after work, I decided to go to Kyoto, the former capital of Japan and probably the most attractive city for the tourists in the whole country.

Tokyo: making the best out of one-week business trip
I was lucky to have a business trip to such a faraway and unique country as Japan. Of course, every country is unique in its own was, but for whatever reasons Japan stands out in my mind.

A weekend trip to Stockholm
