Things to do in YosemiteAs a couple that gave up pretty much everything (house, job, community, most possessions, etc.) to follow a dream, we are always on the lookout for our tribe. We scoured the globe for badass traveling duos to share their favorite place and piece of advice in our book Ultimate Journeys for Two. We’ve made a point to pen-pal and wine-Zoom with like-minded couples we’ve met in Argentina, Norway, Slovenia, Costa Rica, and other far-off places to keep that sense of community in our nomadic lives.

We were

Kyoto is a beautiful city located in central Japan. Many people flock here because of the rich culture. Kyoto is famous for its many tourist attractions including palaces, temples, and shrines, and it’s easy accessibility to Tokyo and Osaka. During my 2 days in Kyoto Itinerary, I was able to see many of the city’s popular attractions and I wanted to share how I spent my 2 days in Kyoto.

It was not easy to create an itinerary for visiting Kyoto because there were so many other places I could have seen and visited during my stay here. However, I have curated the best of Kyoto spots to visit for 2 days in Kyoto from Fushimi Inari to Nishiki Market.
