Rome, Italy
Before we start our Tasting Tour of Tokyo series, we'll have this fun little travel related giveaway.
As many of you know, I love, love, love to travel. I love exploring new cultures, new landscapes, and (of course), new cuisines. Food is, naturally, a huge part of any of my trips, and I always do tons of research before choosing where to eat on each trip.

I also have been getting into photography a lot more lately, and it's been really fun to explore new cities and countries behind the photographer's lens. I've gotten to the point where the photos are really my main "souvenir" from each trip, and I hardly bring anything physical back with me these days (with the exception of some local snacks, of course!).

Of course, lodging's a big part of travel, and something I almost never talk about on this blog. The quality of your lodging can make or break a vacation, especially when you're in a foreign country where you really don't know how things work. I've often relied heavily on hotel concierges for help regarding various things, and they can make such a difference depending on how good they are.
Just a couple weeks ago, I was in Australia and stayed at a Radisson Hotel in Sydney. The location was fantastic and the free wifi in-room was really, really helpful (and not something we got everywhere else on our trip). The hotel breakfast was pretty pricey, but I just skipped out on dining there and walked right outside where there were endless choices for food.
