    Takeshita Street

    I’m sorry but I don’t understand the thrill of Takeshita Street. It’s just a walkway with bubble gum pink shops and bubble gum pink eateries. Nothing extraordinary here but at the same time, I can see how it can appeal to people, especially young people.

    Fukushuen

    Having been to a number of East Asian gardens, Fukushuen or Fuzhou Garden of Naha, Okinawa appeared less impressive to me than it actually was.

    Traveling during COVID19

    If someone were to tell you that they will be traveling, how would you feel? As for me, I have mixed feelings toward those that travel when COVID19 is still very much in the air and has yet to be eradicated.

    Why I Hate Hotels

    I don’t like hotels. In fact, I think I hate hotels. Sure, I’ve never had the opportunity to stay at the Ritz Carlton or even The Four Seasons but I have a funny feeling that even if I had such an opportunity, my feelings toward hotels would remain unchanged.

    The Cat with Okinawan Vibes

    Not far from Naminoue Shrine is a park called Asahigaoka Park. It was at this park that I encountered a gorgeous cat. He seemed so at home in this park. So peaceful. So warm. And so chill.
