Shopping In Japan |
If there is anything i like most about Japan is shopping. The city is filled with stores, from malls to individual little speciality stores. There are just food stores everywhere as well. It is awesome..!! Like any other places, the Japanese can get abit rowdy when it is during peak hours.. but as a tourist .. it can be a little overwhelming. There are digital signage just about everywhere.. and really Tokyo does shine at night. Buy just about anything.. and view the latest technology.

Halloween In Japan |
You would think that someone like myself being an Asian would be conservative when it comes to celebrating Halloween, right? Well you’d be wrong! In Asia we do have some very great Halloween celebrations too but it’s a matter of knowing where to be in order to not miss out. The Japanese are definitely by far the most wild when it comes to celebrating Halloween! One year I was there and as I was finishing work, the sky wasn’t even dark yet and there was someone serving vodka at the building that I was working in. All dressed up as the Ripper!
These days with a kid and all, we kinda dress appropriately but we can’t wait till she goes to bed and put on some really sexy costumes and party the night away. We haven’t really decided what we want to do this year as a couple but the man wants to go with a pirate costume whereas I want to do the french maid thing. But the man isn’t too keen on that so I might try and get into one of those air stewardess costume that I see whenever I fly. It would be fun just to serve instead of being served on the airplanes eh.

Harajuku, Tokyo Japan |
I do love Japan, the people are nice.. although they don’t speak alot in English at all… but if you can speak a little Japanese, they are delighted. There are so much to talk about in Japan .. but the famous Harajuku is a street you must not missed when you are in Japan.
Harajuku is an area between Shinjuku and Shibuya. This place is international known for its very bold youth style and fashion. Seeing kids with multi-colored hair here is not uncommon. Lined with many trendy and fashionable store and boutiques, you will find many fast food outlets, crepe stands and just about anything a young adult would love. If you can’t find anything to eat, you can always rely on Macdonald’s.
It is an extraordinary experience for teens dressed up in the most outrageous costume that represent their famous anime or even rock stars. And if you are with kids, don’t forget to get to Snoopy Town, right across the train station. Of course, you will noticed that the 100 Yen store is also bustling with people and everything is just at 100 Yen.
