Currently based in Tokyo, Sue Lynn first came to Japan as a university exchange student. With 6 years of experience in Japan’s inbound tourism, she is familiar with Japan, particularly on rail passes and East Japan spots, and has a passion for travelling.

Sue is also passionate about Japan’s thrifting culture, and is keen to uncover more hidden gems while visiting all 47 prefectures during her stay in Japan. Sue’s 5Cs are cats, cameras, cinema, climbing, and city pop. Ask her about how her favourite JR Pass (JR TOKYO Wide Pass) saved her life (and wallet).
