Japan is a complex country where the most extreme modernity coexists with an ancient and refined culture. Tokyo has some of the most densely packed districts anywhere, and possibly the most trendy hi-tech consumer society, yet at the same time the traditional world of Japan still lingers there and can be seen by the observant eye. I have found this duality is one of the most fascinating aspects of Japan. Besides the hyper-active city life, there is the serenity of the gardens, the austere elegance of the temples, and a general appreciation of aesthetics, which are so well expressed in Kyoto. Although it is sometimes a strange and disconcerting place, the country is free of petty crime, dishonesty, litter, and rudeness. Although they have embraced the 21st century more than any other nation, Japanese people are governed by traditional social values and etiquette and extend their civility to visitors.

New Zealand, about 1,250 mi (2,012 km) southeast of Australia, consists of two main islands and a number of smaller outlying islands so scattered that they range from the tropical to the antarctic. The country is the size of Colorado. New Zealand's two main components are the North Island and the South Island, separated by Cook Strait. The north Island is 515 mi (829 km) long and volcanic in its south-central part. This area contains many hot springs and beautiful geysers. South Island has the Southern Alps along its west coast, with Mount Cook the highest point. Other inhabited islands include Stewart Island, the Chatham islands, and Great Barrier Island. The largest of the uninhabited outlying islands are the Auckland islands , Campbell Island , the Antipodes islands , and the Kermadec islands .New Zealand is a country full of grand scenery, lush landscapes, culture, and a variety of wildlife.
