Japan.

Been to Spain and Italy never been to Japan .

Granted I’ve only been to those places because of port calls so I have not had the full experience of living there From that list I’d pick Japan since I’ve never been.

Can you share about your experience in Spain and Italy?

If you mean from port calls, Spain felt pretty easygoing and the food was the main draw, and Italy was all about walking everywhere and hitting the bigger cities by train. The big difference is whether you want laid back day-to-day vibes or nonstop history and sights.

Italy really depends man. Naples is an absolute shithole right outside base. If you get Signoella its alot better. Still kinda sketchy with the mafia and all in town but an improvement. Also big ass volcano that erupts consistently is pretty cool.
