In partnership with Finisterra Travel

Meet your host: Ashley Castellanos, owner of Vegan Ventures.

Hi! I’m a vegan of almost 9 years and have been an avid traveler and foodie for much longer! I have traveled to almost 30 countries and I truly love exploring, learning about cultures, and enjoying the best experiences, which also includes good food!

I am excited to host a tour in Japan along with our local guide that we’ll having throughout the week. I wanted to put together an itinerary that was off the beaten path in Japan that really allows you to learn about the culture, the food, and the people. I am proud of this itinerary that my travel partners and I have put together.

I have done a lot a lot of solo travel in the past, but one thing I’ve learned to really appreciate getting to enjoy experiences with others, especially with like-minded people.

I hope you join me and our amazing group. If you can’t make it to Japan, I hope to see you on another upcoming Vegan Ventures group tour!
