Nazrul Buang

Since stepping on Japanese soil for the first time in 2009, Nazrul has been visiting Japan, exploring the farthest northern corners of Hokkaido to the southernmost edge of Kyushu. He sees Japan not just as a tourist destination but also as a second home, as he always finds someplace new to visit but always feels right at home.   Nazrul’s favourite cities in Japan are Sendai in Miyagi Prefecture, and Fukuoka in Fukuoka Prefecture. He will also go to great lengths for ramen when in any part of Japan. There was a time when he travelled to Japan for the sole reason of checking ramen places off his list. Ask for his recommendations and his response may surprise you.
