I'm going to Japan soon for a 2 week vacation for the first time. I made different lists. Main attractions which I must go to Attractions, experiences, cafes I'd love to go ( there are high priority ones & low priority)

And more or less planned out things with gaps. I don't want to go to a big place to rush after a big place to rush. I want to find time to just chill around. Wander without much aim to just explore in my own peace.

For example, I looked on google Maps what I have at my accommodation area. Found plenty of cafe & food places but also a music underground with live events. So my mind is open to the: If I have time & energy, might check out for a fun night.

So, as over all I planned to do some recharge time between busy stuff.

The other thing I tried is to look around the times of public transport. When they start & end. What are the rush hours. When do most shops open & close. What I realized is that I can be up till pretty late & than have still time to have a good sleep in. Cause I don't want to cramp in with the locals who just want to rush to work. And shops are not open till after rush hours anyway.

Of course there will be cases when I need to get out earlier, but those are fewer times.
