About Us - Mad About Japan

Japan is one of the best countries on earth - that’s just a fact. People who have been to Japan say this, and even people who are yet to go agree. The culture, traditions, food, fashion, and technology are just a few of the aspects that make me Mad About Japan. If you’re hoping to visit Japan one day, my website has been designed to tide you over in the meantime. My name is Hienadz Vardanyan, and when I first started Mad About Japan, I was just like you - marveling at the country from a great distance. Now that I have been lucky enough to visit Japan, I want to continue exciting people and encouraging them to get over there. Our main aim is to teach and inform people about all aspects of Japan - not just the technology and cherry blossoms. Japan has a uniqueness like no other, and it’s important that we cherish this and respect it when we visit. And we lean on expertise from locals. No one knows the best restaurants, and the nicest place to visit, and no one can embody the culture quite like the local people, so hearing their experiences and working with them to create the best content we can is essential. There have been a fair share of ignorant visitors in Japan, and they’ve given tourists a bad reputation. I hope that our website will encourage visitors to respect Japan’s culture and traditions while still enjoying your time there. Who knows, you might even enjoy getting stuck into Japanese culture!
