Tokyo By Tokyo

More and more, what I’m realizing I’d like it if the Upon a Fold folks just planned our Japan trip for us. Every time I think they’ve outdone themselves with their offerings, they come up with another goodie I just have to have. This time, it’s a guide book: Tokyo By Tokyo.

The book itself looks lovely enough, but also promises to contain tips about the kinds of things you’d never know about as a mere tourist–just the kind of traveling I like! According to Upon A Fold, the book is “written by saavy Tokyoites sharing their insider tips on the best places to visit when in Tokyo.” (via)

Okay, so admittedly, I also like that it looks a bit like a retro textbook.

Claska is more than just a guidebook publisher. It’s also a hotel, and small gift shop and gallery. The shop is focused on Japanese Ceramics and looks simple and lovely.

Perhaps it would be best if all the suitcases I take with me to Japan are empty so I can just fill them there? Sigh.
