in a tree so that it is the one that takes it and not us. It is common to see trees with
a pile of little pieces of paper hanging on the branches.
30. And if these curiosities of Japan were few, we are in the country where the
world is objectively best eaten. This figure is strengthened by the achievement of
no less than 191 Michelin star stars, achieving twice as much Paris, although 60%
is Japanese food and the remaining percentage of other food. We are staying with
