I just need a LITTLE help on this essay?

Okay, this shouldn't be too hard for anyone even the least bit skilled. I'm just brain-dead here.
So, we're working on a five-paragraph essay on what I'd do if I visited Japan. The first thing is visiting historical places, etc. I just need a way to start the paragraph besides saying "First, I would go to..." How about, "Since Japan is so rich in history, I would first want to search for museums and historical landmarks." I've always been bad with transitional words and phrases. Would this still be okay?
The second body paragraph would be about tasting their foods, especially sushi. I have no idea how to bring that up, though. (Then again, I have no idea what they really eat, other than what we eat at local Japanese restaurants, and if it's like Mexican restaurants, we all know that isn't authentic!)
The third and final body paragraph will be about souvenirs. I've thought of a couple ways to start.
First way: "Before leaving, I would want to take time to find souvenirs."
Second: "While there, I would want to keep an eye out for souvenirs to buy."
Either way, I can't come up with a final sentence on the third paragraph. It sounds dorky to say, "These would help remind me of my trip." Certainly I could say something to sum-up that paragraph without sounding stupid???
If you only have one suggestion, still please post. I really need some feedback. Thanks!!!!
