Eight Places To Find Your Ikigai In Japan
Japan, like many of my favorite destinations, is a thriving paradox. If I were to inherit a limitless sum of money, I’d easily be able to make a dent in it here. Onsens, serene mountain inns, Kobe beef and Michelin star sushi, top-shelf sake -- you name it, it’s all on offer. What really intrigues me about the Japanese lifestyle, however, is its concept of ikigai. Ikigai translates as, “that which most makes one's life seem worth living.” Having direction or purpose has been partly attributed to the long lifespans of the Okinawan people. It … [Read more...] about Eight Places To Find Your Ikigai In Japan
