Hello!

Hi! Welcome to "Tokyo Memo"! I've just started this new blog to introduce you about Tokyo. When I was studying abroad in the U.S, I was pretty shocked that many people didn't know much about Tokyo. At the same time, I had a strong feeling that I want to let people know more about this attractive and enchanting city. Hope this blog will help you to get to know a bit more about Tokyo and make you want to visit Tokyo. Please enjoy!
