24 Hours in Kyoto: Part 2
The next morning we woke up as early as we could manage and hopped on a bus towards Fushimi Inari-taisha, which if you've ever seen pictures of Kyoto, may be what you've seen. When we arrived it was as crowded as I expected it would be, but compared to places like Asakusa in Tokyo that I've visited,…
24 Hours in Kyoto: Part 1
24 Hours in Kyoto We arrived in Osaka at about 10:25am running on Loterria burgers and roughly three hours sleep from the night before. To use the word, "exhausted" would be an understatement. I felt like a zombie. And we felt even more like zombies after the hour and a half long bus ride from…
Streets of Japan: Kyoto
A while back I made a post called "Streets of Japan: Tokyo," which you can check out HERE if you'd like. Taking picture of streets while I travel and Japan are two things that I happen to love, and so these posts are always fun for me. Last weekend my sister and I went on…
Streets of Japan: Tokyo
I love taking pictures of streets, always have. I even have an older blog post where I put together a bunch of pictures of streets from some of my various travels. (You can read that here.) But it's no secret that Japan is known for little magical alleys and streets. So here are just some…
Tokyo Day 4: Akihabara and a Buddhist Bar

Tokyo Day 2: Imperial Palace, Asakusa, and Sensō-ji
Day two started off pretty late as we were still recovering from the very late flight over from Korea. One of my friends went to a cafe earlier in the morning and brought us back some coffee and snacks. We ate our little breakfast looking down at the street from the window in our…

Tokyo Day 1: Shibuya, Harajuku, and Omotesando
I have loved Japan from afar for a long time. Thanks in part to my sister who started randomly studying Japanese for fun when she was about 10 years old, and partly due to the fact that one of the best summer's of my life was my first semester teaching English at the ELI where, by…
