In 2017 I had a family trip to Taiwan for 2 weeks and so I thought that year I won't be going to Japan which will end the strike (I have went to Japan for 3 consecutive years previously from 2014 to 2016). However a friend of mine was planning his first Japan trip with his girlfriend and asked me do I want to tag along too, sort of to be their guide (LOL). Initially I rejected, but after checking the air ticket and asked my brother does he wanna go, I agreed to my friend we will go with them to Tokyo only (the couple planned to go Hakone and Kansai as well). And so in October 2017, me and my brother went for a short trip to Tokyo!
