Surviving Paris with only $70

I kicked off the year with a trip to Paris, France! This time, I took on the $70 challenge (10,000 yen) to explore the city on a tight budget.

Instead of focusing on the usual tourist spots, I dedicated my days to savoring local foods. From street-side galettes to mouthwatering sandwiches and a traditional French dinner, every bite was a delight. Despite the current inflation in France due to post-COVID recovery and preparations for the 2024 Olympics in Paris, the challenge was both demanding and enjoyable.

Along the way, I gained insights into the country's social support systems, discovering unique approaches to workdays and time off that differ from what I'm accustomed to as a Japanese. Join me on this adventure, and make sure to subscribe for more travel stories!

WHO AM I? My name is Shota and I'm a traveler and van conversion enthusiast. When I was 19, I left Japan and spent nine years exploring different countries and immersing myself in diverse cultures. In the past three years, I've been sharing my adventures in Japan through my YouTube channel, showcasing the lesser-known sides of the country and vanlife travel experience. When I'm not busy converting vans and ex-Japanese police buses into campervans, I'm back on the road, traveling the world and sharing my journey with others. My ultimate goal is to inspire others to embrace the diversity and vastness of the world around them.
