From the small and beautiful Lago di Endine and the stunning Lago di Iseo to breathtaking waterfalls and amazing views of the Swiss Alps, you'll be surrounded by stunning Alpine scenery wherever you go.
You'll finish off this itinerary by enjoying breathtaking views of Lake Como from above.
When on vacation always remember: Travel and exploration are all about the joy of discovery. So, always leave room for the unexpected on your journeys and remember – Leave No Trace Principles. You never know what delightful surprises await you!

I lived there for almost two years. I moved without knowing anything about their culture. For me, Asia was very far from my reach. I didn't even take it into account then.
The most complicated thing was joining a group of people there. They were very respectful to the point that not even a couple showed love for each other in the streets. On the other hand, everything was new to me, so I took advantage of every second to explore and learn more about Japan and my favorite city there: TOKYO.
CURIOSITIES:
If you don't have Japanese blood, you can't apply for Japanese citizenship.
Did you know that Japan has the highest life expectancy rate in the world?
86 years for women and 79 for men. The longest life expectancy highest within Japan is located on the island of Okinawa.
In addition, Shinjuku station in Tokyo is the busiest in the world. According to Wikipedia, 3.64 million people pass through this station daily. The station has 200 exits.
The most important thing: It's not very expensive.
You can eat for €7-8 and water always is free.
You can find accommodation for €25-30 per person.
Tokyo Metro costs €1.70 per person per journey.
High-speed Shinkansen train lines are expensive (but it is the easiest way to travel around Japan).
In this guide you'll find:

First time visiting Japan, but looking for an itinerary beyond the Golden Triangle [Tokyo, Kyoto, & Osaka]? This itinerary efficiently combines these cities with smaller traditional villages, serene gardens, the magical nature of the Nagano and Wakayama Prefectures, and small islands. The itinerary is designed for a time span of two weeks onwards. Covering all places in two weeks, like we did, results in a packed planning. By stretching the time span, one can personalize the itinerary; while one person might decide to spend some additional time on Naoshima, others will prefer to book an additional night in the city of Osaka.
Next to the diverse palette of places, this itinerary includes plenty of recommendations for tearooms, restaurants, and hotels.
All pictures are taken by myself.

✔️ made by someone with seafood/nut allergies! 🙅🏻♀️🥜🐟
(edit) please note: this list includes places I've been to and DID NOT have an allergy issue there. unfortunately not many places in Japan are made for 100% seafood allergy or vegan places because well, its a highly seafood based country. Anyway, hope this helps :)
