Right, my study is kicking my ass… So instead of pictures, there is this nice video shot by Stefan Werc.
Enjoy~
There are some nice videos that I would like to share. You might have come across them already, nonetheless, it’s worth to take a look at them again.
So without further a due, I present to you this video from the recently passed away, Nujabes. Thank you for the great music that you’ve brought to us.
RIP
Hey hey,
I’m thinking, I have a bunch of other pictures that aren’t taken in Japan.
Since the memory of Japan is fading, wouldn’t this be a chance for me to include other pictures in this blog as well, instead of opening another blog.
It’s just that I feel like sharing other stuff that I’ve encountered. So if I’ll continue with this path then I’ll tag the posts for easy navigating for future reference.
It’s still a work in progress though, so don’t expect anything ‘grand’ .
At day, Tokyo is quite an ugly city. Concrete is to be seen everywhere you go. As time passes, you’ll come to see through the ugliness that is called the concrete jungle and learn the beauty and riches that Tokyo has to offer.
Especially at night, the city oozes a vibrant, moody atmosphere when you walk down the streets of Kabukichõ, Roppongi or Shibuya.
To look at it from a perspective, I always go to an observatory located at one of the many skyscrapers available for free or paid entry.
This is when the concrete jungle is no more, this is where it has transformed into a proud city showing off it’s splendours with all its might. Yes, I am biased. Sure there were many times when I despised the city, the transportation, the loneliness. Yet for every negative aspect, there is always a positive one if you look in right direction.
Love it or hate it, living in Tokyo is like a relationship where you have to endure the good, the bad and the ugly.
In Tokyo there are many unique districts within the metropolitan area.
One of this district is also referred as Kitchen Town, in the vicinity of Tawaramachi station on the Ginza subway line.
Here you can find all related items for your restaurant, bar or just your cozy home. Items such as kitchen utensils, porcelain, cups and mugs, packaging and plastic food.
Yes, plastic food! There are specialised shops selling sushi, ice cream, spaghetti and more. I think I have pictures of those and I’ll upload them at a later stage as a batch that does not fall into the category of A Day in Japan set.
Any way, those plastic food look like the real thing and I couldn’t resist buying a fake sushi bento box.
Since the Kitchen District is close to Asakusa and the Sumida river, you can see the rising Tokyo Sky tree from here, which is pretty amazing.
Enjoy the scenery.
While in Japan, I never took a video of how going into some bathrooms is a pretty nifty experience.

Rush hour in the trains is always crazy. You get squished till you hear your bones pop. I wonder how those tiny Japanese girls survive everyday, commuting like this.
Also, depending on the time of the day you might be lucky not standing in front of a drunk salary men, with the smell of a visit from the local izakaya.
Ah, the good ol’ times, I do miss them.
