In Japan the way you present something is almost as important as the gift itself. The country is famous for its artistic and beautiful wrapping details and techniques. Every occasion has its own unique set of rules and color schemes.

Yes, you are reading correctly! Alien!

Well, I’m an ALIEN in Tokyo!
