Japan (Day 6) – Sanrio Puroland & Takahatafudo

(Note: There are 50 photographs in this post. Loading may take a while.) Caution to guys: Cute overload ahead! If you wish to skip the ensuing kawaii-ness in entirety, scroll all the way down for some nice photos of a Buddhist temple. On this day, I paid a visit to Sanrio Puroland — home of Hello Kitty and all things cute! If someone was to designate a kingdom of... Read more →

Japan (Day 5) – Harajuku

This was the first (of 2 days) in Japan that I got to do some solo traveling! The excitement and exhilaration that stem from facing an utterly foreign city alone is something I haven’t experienced in a long time. As much as I love spending time with my friends, there would never come a day when I would stop craving for the freedom in going solo. Each time I walked... Read more →

Japan (Day 4) – Shibuya & Tokyo Tower

It was only day 4 in Japan. And already, I was craving for pasta!At noon, we were in an area someplace near Shibuya when an unusual rocket-shaped glass building caught our attention. We spotted the little Italy flag from afar through the glass and realised it was an Italian restaurant! What luck! (more…)  Read more →

Japan (Day 3) – Shibuya, Gay Parade & Ginza

It’s day 3 in Tokyo and we’re ready to do some serious… Shopping! There’s no better place to do this than trendy Shibuya. Besides shopping malls and department stores, the walkways and alleys here are packed with numerous fashion shops. You can practically shop ’til you drop (in the 40 degree Japan summer heat)!Shibuya is an area where there... Read more →

Japan (Day 2) – Tokyo Disneyland

I have never been to Disneyland in my entire life! Now that I’m in Tokyo, I know that I just HAVE to go there! To me this is one of those must-visit places before I die! (Okay, so this post ain’t gonna interest the guys much. But I love all things pretty! And Disneyland is one pretty and cute place!) We woke up early in the morning and made our way to Shinjuku... Read more →

Japan (Day 1) – Arrival in Tokyo

(This is the first of 11 posts on my awesome Japan trip. I’m gonna blog about it from the very beginning all the way to the end!) Our flight to Tokyo was at 8:30 in the morning! To be in time to check in at 6 or 7ish, we would have to wake up at 5am. That is, like, freakin’ early! So, I came up with the brilliant idea of going to the airport the night before... Read more →

Back from Japan!

Hey people, I am back from my 11-day holiday in Japan! It had been an immensely memorable experience and I had lots of fun, booze, shopping and sightseeing! Right now I’m physically and mentally exhausted! But I do have tons of pictures, videos and experiences to blog about. Hopefully from tomorrow onwards, I would be able to blog my day-to-day posts over a period... Read more →

Indonesian BBQ at Fork & Spoon – Last Lunch in Singapore (Before Japan Hour!) [Closed]

By this time tomorrow I would have arrived in Tokyo, where I would be gorging on gorgeous Japanese cuisine for the next 11 days! In the days leading up to this trip, I have been stuffing myself fat with several meals of yummy Indian, Muslim and various other local food. I’m gonna miss the food here so much! Today, I had my last lunch in Singapore (there’s still... Read more →

Web Trend Map vs. Tokyo Subway Map

Every now and then I come across a piece of design that really captures my attention. I would then spend hours, days even, doing research on the subject and poring over every single detail of it. Not too long ago, it was an incredible piece of pixel art that mesmerised me. In more recent weeks, it is this amazing web trend map that has been keeping my eyes busy. Modeled... Read more →

Ben & Jerry’s – Moo-licious!

Just between you and me, I think Ben & Jerry’s makes the best ice cream in the whole world! I recently paid a visit to its outlet at Dempsey Hill and had a really enjoyable time eating ice cream at the “ranch”.Most Ben & Jerry’s scoop shops can be identified by their cutesy decor, with cloudscapes, meadows and cow print murals decorating... Read more →
