When it comes to Japan, Have a look at the world map, Japan is located on the Far East. We realized that Japan is very far away from western countries.

It is said that Japan is the land of the rising sun. but, actually Japan is 4 hours behind than New Zealand. I mean New Zealand is the first sunrise country in the world.

How long does it take to get to Japan from the western countries like America or England? From Europe like a Paris or London to Tokyo, it takes about approximately 12 hours. From New York to Tokyo, it takes about approximately 14 hours. Even the Seattle that the nearest American city in the mainland of America from Japan, it takes about approximately 9 hours. Japan is so far away from western countries. But wait a minute, There's a place where you can be reached American in 3 hours and a half, it's a Guam.

Guam is a territory of the United States located in the western Pacific Ocean and is part of the subtropical region, you can swim all year round. Local people at there speaks English, some people speaks Japanese as well. And it is safe. To see the sunset from the beach is amazing. you will be in paradise.

Guam has rainy and dry seasons. Usually the rainy season begins from June to October, so you should better to avoid those months. I think January and February
are the best season because of the nice weather and cheaper traveling expenses. Please take a look for the travel agencies which offers reasonable travel like a HIS.

I recommend you to purchase 1 day shuttle bus pass that cost $10 each for the hotel route. They also have 2 days($15) but $4 per ride. The hotel route goes from Micronesia Mall, K-Mart and Guam Premium Outlet stops in many hotels. So you don't have to Rent-a-Car.

Guam that isolated Island depends on imports for everything from U.S mainland. So prices are high in there. but you don't have to pay consumption tax when you
buy something.

Guam is accessible location. near, not so far from Japan. Time difference between
Guam and Japan are only 1 hour earlier than Japan. Usually, Japanese people plans on itinerary for 4 days. However I rarely seen the tourist from South America and Europe except Russian.

Guam, An Island of accessible and surrounded beautiful nature and beach. you might to consider to go there on you way to visit Japan.
