Japan Together
A father-and-son journey, one chapter at a time
Tokyo begins a shared promise to travel somewhere in the world together each year—and to experience the food, culture, traditions and surprises side by side.
Japan Together follows a father and son discovering the country through the interests they share and the moments neither could have planned. Begin with Tokyo—baseball umbrellas, quiet shrines, Shibuya’s crowds, temple incense and a city seen through two generations.
