    Just avoid summer, the humidity is pretty grim. April and late September is nice weather (like a UK summer) although October tends to be typhoon season! And be prepared for an earthquake, I felt 20 in six months, they're * scary at first but you do get used to them and the buildings are constructed very well. Apart from that... Do it!

    How much was accommodation? This is normally the thing that costs a lot on the journey? Did you do the JR rail pass?

    All in I spent £2000 on accommodation. Didn’t use the JR pass. Got the shinkansen from Osaka to Hiroshima and Fukuoka. Flew from Fukuoka to Tokyo and from Tokyo to Osaka.

    Yeah it's the pricey one. Sounds great though!

    It was great. Went for nicer places so could easily have done it cheaper.
