Living in a city for a long time can make you overlook the beauty and uniqueness of your surroundings. Take Los Angeles, for example. It’s a massive city that can easily be navigated on autopilot, missing out on the hidden gems it has to offer. However, when you have visitors from a different country, like Ayaka, Atsushi, and Yuki from Japan, you get to rediscover the wonders of your own town through their eyes.
