Hi Gaf.
I'm currently living in Europe in early April im heading back to my home country in south america to start a business idea with some of my family.
I'll stop working at the end of February and I left the whole of March to travel around a bit while I'm still here. I already have a few trips planned (Paris with my mom and Spain with a couple of friends) but I'd love to take this chance to visit some asian country (or countries).
I've always been drawn to the continent, I find the cultures there fascinating and it just seems really different from everything I've visited. I've been to italy, Sweden, Germany, England, Irland and some more and while they are all amazing, in broad terms they all have this western culture that isn't too different from the one I grew up with, and Asia just seems completely different in some ways.
Since it's much cheaper and faster to go there from Europe than from South America this seems like a good chance, but I'm not sure which are the best places to visit.
As someone who grew up loving a lot of japanese media (videogames, manga, anime) I'd be lying if I said Japan isn't the one that interests me the most, but then again I've heard wonderful things about Korea, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, etc.
What I like to do in travels is getting to know the culture, visit touristic and historical attractions and enjoy the food. I'm not that much into parties or nightlife, I'd rather get to bed somewhat early and then get up early to have more time to explore the city and it's surroundings. There is also a good chance I'll be doing this trip alone (not my first solo trip so I sort of know what to expect).
What places would you recommend?
