Japan Day 3 (Kyoto): 04/03/14

This was probably the busiest day during our trip since there was just so much to be explored in the Eastern part of Kyoto. From Kyoto Station, we bought a one-day bus pass for 500 yen since most sites we wanted to visit were accessible via bus. I was really hoping to discover weird flavors of KitKat, but surprisingly, I didn't see that much. Too bad the KitKat store is only in Tokyo since I was hoping to find strange flavors like wasabi or soy sauce. We only saw matcha (Green tea), cinnamon and hojicha (Roasted green tea) flavors in Kyoto Station. I've never tried the hojicha flavor before, but it was quite good! The matcha flavor is only Ok for me since I prefer the sakura matcha (Cherry blossom) more, while the cinnamon wasn't really my cup of tea since first and foremost, I'm not a fan of cinnamon lol

Japan Day 2 (Kyoto & Osaka): 04/02/14

Our second day was jam-packed so we started early! My morning consisted of a green tea and white chocolate muffin, and the latest Nylon Japan magazine that I bought the previous day. Every day, we would get on the 8:30 shuttle to the airport, and then ride the JR-West rapid train to Kyoto. We would be in Kyoto around 10. If we were friends, you probably know that I don't dress normally, and I strongly believe that I was a Harajuku girl in the past life lol I'm so happy I was able to wear my bones leggings and Magikarp hat without people staring at me weirdly HAHAHA! Of course I took the opportunity to wear this amazing piece created by my talented friend, Bex in the "Land of Pokemon" hihi

Japan Day 1 (Osaka): 04/01/14

It's apparent that I only blog when I've been on a trip, and for that, I apologize. I just really love traveling more than anything in the world (Ok, maybe food and travel are equal lol), and nothing makes me happier than discovering new places. Last April 1-5, we had our first family trip of the year to Japan. We've already been to Tokyo so we explored Osaka and Kyoto this time. Unfortunately, my sister who currently resides in Singapore, couldn't come with us since she had her own trip to Tokyo with her boyfriend, Brian. We arrived around 2:30 in the afternoon (Japan is ahead by an hour).
