Backpacking in Japan

Is Japan suitable for Backpacking? I know that it is a very expensive country comparing to other east -asia countries, so by "suitable" I refer to Public transportation, camping grounds and interesting long treks.

I enjoy using Yedda to ask and answer medical questions. I previously worked as a nurse but am now based from home - having just completed a long spell of breast cancer treatment.

Life has also been busy lately after the arrival of our new puppy called poppy. She's a black labarador retriever and drives us all crazy at times but we just adore the buzz she brings to the house. Last week she caused me a shoulder injury by tugging when out walking - but I can forgive that for the fun she brings. Other sites I like to visit are:

European Vacations

Whiplash Injury

Skin Treatment

Europe Vacation Destinations

Apple Cider Vinegar

Voos Baratos

Maori Tattoos

Lord of the Rings Jewelry

Travel Notes

 

 

Yes - go for it - I went backpacking in Europe last year and had a great time. Japan would be amazing
