To the land of Konnichiwa

こんにちは~
I've told so many people prior to my trip that I'm not at least excited for it. OH MAN I've made such a huge mistake on that statement. Now, just 1 week back from Japan, I'm missing that place so much already. 

Shinjuku 新宿 - That's where my AirBNB apartment is. Amazingly, I booked the apartment (which it says its like 4mins away from Shinjuku JR station) and it took us such a long time to find the apartment. But that's just for the first day! Short cuts were everywhere (and we had a nice host, yay) so it makes travelling around Tokyo really easy from Shinjuku JR station. 

So we walked around Shinjuku JR station on the first night, since we touched down and found out apartment until 4pm. Japanese crepes. They are everywhere. Everyone's queuing for one so we had to grab one too. Not. Nice. One. 

That's my mum pretending to get something from those colourful vending machines near our apartment. Yes, these are the best way you can do coin donations in Japan. 


明治神宮は - Meiji Jinggu Shrine







Harajuku 原宿
& we had an enormous cotton candy for free YAY


Best tempura I had in my life. I ate everything that I usually don't eat (i.e. squid, prawn)


Shibuya 渋谷, the famous Shibuya Crossing.

Actually, nothing amazing lol. 


Ichiran ramen 一蘭のラーメン. This one is not bad (only the menu is a little bad), love the soup! 



Yokohama 横浜 - Cup Noodle Museum 
Quite an amazing experience. Didn't expect to have to much to see just out of making cup noodles. Honestly speaking, everything can be better with a little of translation in english. Don't like english? Chinese also can ma.....................


Yokohama Chinatown (I googled and it's one of the biggest in Japan).




Ueno Zoo 上野動物園!!! The oldest in Japan! 



Say hi to the Kangaroo and Joey!




Fresh Sushi from Tsujiki Fish Market 築地市場
