A Wish to Travel Overseas

I have been planning on a trip to Japan for a while now. It is never cheap to travel to this exotic country. It is especially expensive for someone earning her living as a nanny. I really should consider other countries in Asia but Japan has been on the top of my list of destinations for a long time.

I do check online from time to time to see what sort of travel packages and accommodation options are out there. There are many places online where one can arrange their travelling needs. One such website is Hotel Reservations.com. This company offers travellers good prices to hotels in many countries around the world. They specialize in Bed & Breakfast and private condos/apartments as well. (The later is definitely out of my budget range. LOL) Vacation packages are also available. Hotel Reservations.com also covers hotels in Japan. Some of the hotels featured are pretty reasonably priced and within my budget since I only need to use them for a few days during my trip. Even the cheaper options are said to be close to facilities like the subway. Staying in hotels close to all the action allows me to spend some time exploring Tokyo. Luckily I won’t be spending the whole trip staying in hotels because a couple of friends have already invited me to stay with them. One of them is married to a Japanese guy. It will be interesting staying with her because they (like many Japanese) do not sleep on beds! They apparently sleep on traditional Japanese futons – thin mattresses that are rolled up for storage. They are such nice people though. They have offered their son’s bedroom to me. At my rate of savings, the kid (who is 3 now) might well be a teenager by the time I take up the offer. LOL.
