I’m 29, never left the country. My bucket list is visiting Japan at the very top. I have no idea what you do or if you have to go through travel agencies, how much money you should bring etc

So that’s what a hostel is? I would rather get a hotel or something
Like I said, it’s got pros and cons. Hotels are good too.
Although hotels also terrify me because of the potential of bed bugs
You shouldn’t be scared of hotels. If you’re getting a reasonable room you’ll have an entirely normal experience. If you cheap out, then you are taking a risk in exchange for money.
But if you’re going to travel internationally, you should default to not afraid. It is by and large safe out there. Be smart, but not media-sensitized.
only thing id be worried about is bed bugs
Again, don’t be. I don’t have data off the top of my head, but I’d wager Japan has shockingly few cases of bed bugs in their tourist sector.
I only ask cause i just recently read how France for example is literally infested
Without data, take media reports as sensational by necessity. France’s problems may not be as bad as they seem (I would assume they’re not) and France’s problems don’t automatically translate to other countries like Japan.
To wrap this back around to your main post, travelling to Japan shouldn’t induce fear at any step. It’s a safe country with low crime rates and few health problems for tourists.
Overall how much money would I realistically need to do this trip?
