Traveling to Asia / myLot

United States

August 12, 2026 5:46am CST

Amyra, my 15 year old niece, got to choose the location of her senior trip, and she chose Japan (she loves Japanese culture, especially anime). They are planning now to have time to save up for it since it will be in a couple more years. Today on a survey, I was asked if I chose three Asian countries to visit, which would I choose? I picked Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines. What about you guys?

How exciting that Amyra will travel to Japan for her senior trip. My grandson has always wanted to go to Japan but so far he hasn't, I think a trip to Japan would be awesome.

I’d like to go with my sister’s family, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say I can’t afford it.

@AmbiePam it would really be nice if you could do a trip like that. Who knows what will be when the time comes. Maybe it isn't such a crazy idea

Definitely Japan and I would like to visit the part of Vietnam that my daddy was in. Even with war going on he said that it was a beautiful country. I can see it in the pictures that he took.

Oh, really? Then maybe I would change one of my selections to Vietnam.

@AmbiePam India, Pakistan and Japan. Unfortunately I’ll never be back in Asia again.

India didn’t feel too crowded?

@AmbiePam There are billions of them all talking at the same time and all crammed into whatever train or bus I was taking, but I’m quite adept at zoning out and riding the wave of whatever’s going on so long as I’m travelling on my own.

it's good to start saving up and it's great knowing upfront where they will be going. in my case, in highschool, we knew it a year ago, no less and i didn't like that. o, south korea would be my number one, then japan and third, maybe china but i feel it's too big for me so maybe taiwan or hong kong.

Interesting. They get to pick where they're going? Do they go as individuals, then?

I would choose the Philippines, as you did, but also Mylasia interests me as does Thailand.

Vietnam is popular with Australians. Japan is too. Lots of people from the village have been to both.

I am in India, perhaps the most colourful, packed with varied cultures, languages, food., dresses and landscape. I would like to visit the Philippines but ...
