Culture Exchange Day

Culture Exchange Day

I had another jam packed day for my first full day in Aichi. Since it was easier to meet up with friends on the weekend, I was booked solid the entire day. It also meant I had to carry a load of souvenirs and presents with me from the moment I left the hotel in the morning (popularity has its downfalls lol). As it was still early, I started my morning off browsing through some of the shops at Meieki….

First Day Back

First Day Back

The next day was my first full day in Japan. I took my time in the morning to repack and have breakfast, then it was time to check out from the hotel. I wasn’t meeting Tomomi until 11am at Shinagawa Station, but I decided to head out early anyway cause I wanted to reserve seats for the bullet train. I figured I could also find a coin locker to toss all my bags in, as there was a lot I…

Sha Tin Racecourse

The night after visiting WKCD I ended up going to an AYCE hotpot restaurant where at the time, I didn’t realize I ate way too much, but definitely felt it during the middle of the night when I woke up at 3am wanting to throw up. It’s been three years since I’ve done any major traveling and I still haven’t learned to control my tendency to overeat while on vacation. (T__T)  The following day was wasted because I was too sick to get…
