For me it was Brasov in Romania. It was more beautiful than I had expected and really liked the vibes of this medieval city.

Great food, too. One side of my family is from Amagasaki so I’ve spent way more time in Osaka than other places in Japan. Great city.

The food is otherworldly. Not just in taste, but in variety.

Also, the retro electronic scene is so much better in Osaka than Tokyo. I always come back with 2 large suitcases full of LaserDisc and old video game consoles and peripherals.

For me it’s camera shops. I love old film equipment and there’s some amazing stores.
