JAPAN
For the longest time, since moving to Hawaii, I wanted to go to Japan. Hawaii is heavily influenced by the Japanese culture. I have been enchanted by these extremely polite, gracious, and stye masters foreverrr.. so when I finally got to go,
to say it was my first true culture shock would be an extreme understatement…
Clockwise from Top Naritasan Shinshoji Temple lanterns, more lanterns, sushi plates devoured, me on the train.. sticking out like a soar thumb, Yayoi Kusama.. a Japanese contemporary artist and majorrr influential figure worldwide.
streets of Narita.. so colorful, so enchanting.
Clockwise from Top Naritasan Shinshoji Temple, random shop in Haneda, streets of Tokyo, Me and a GIANT gaudy cotton candy in Harajuku, Cherry Blossoms.. the most well known cherry blossom.. Sakura.
The freshest Sea Urchin you’ll ever see in Tsukiji Fish Market, sushi.. the only place I can even eat it now.. life of a flight attendant..
The Koffee is strong and that’s how I like it! Fresh Mochi- a Japanese rice cake comes with various fresh fruit fillings, chocolate, you name it. Noodles and Tempura
