Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
Rudy can’t get enough of the sheer vitality of Tokyo. Exciting, edgy, and full of life, Tokyo is shopping madness by day and a carnival at night. Join the throngs at one of the world’s most exciting street intersections to witness its blazing neon and JumboTron shows. Greet the new day at the Tsukiji fish market, where a staggering 2,000 tons of seafood pass through each day. Get caught up in cherry blossom mania, visit distant neighborhoods via the subway, and wander the streets in search of new restaurants, a Tokyo obsession!

Viewing Notes
So I like Rudy Maxa but it also drives me crazy… mostly from his mispronunciation of common words. Like Kyoto he pronounces it “KEE-Oh-toe” or “ryokan” as “REE-Oh-Khan”. Ugh it’s so annoying to hear over and over. But I like him and that he’s not always doing the most popular thing or visiting all the well-known attractions. Yes, he hits some top spots but it’s not all top stops.
I decided that Rudy reminds me of our friend Pat. He resembles Pat if Pat were 10 years older and also kinda speaks/sounds the same. Rudy just lacks the cynicism.
I’m listening to the commentary (which is hilarious that he and his other producer Susan even do these). Rudy is a likable guy and I’d love to meet him and talk to him about his trips.
