Jess below shares some of her favourite photos from the recent Japan trip with the group.
They very much enjoyed experiencing the contrast of tradition and modern Japan, the bustling neon-lit streets of Tokyo, the peacefulness of soaking in an onsen during snowfall in Hakone and the elegance of the Maiko and Geiko in Kyoto. Jess ended her time in Japan with another trip to Okinawa to snorkel in the beautiful turquoise waters with some curious clownfish.
