Trends in Tokyo
Seven Eleven Wonders?
So, I'm heading to @Tokyo next month and I've got this thing about finding the most uniquely *local* experiences, even in the most mundane places. I'm staying near this Seven Eleven Nishishinjuku 5-c… more
Dude, Nishishinjuku 5-chome Kita Seven Eleven? That place is a freakin' vortex. I once saw a salaryman, completely passed out, his face nestled in a bowl of still-steaming ramen. Security just gently nudged him with a broom, then covered him with a blanket. Another time, a guy tried to pay for a pack of cigarettes with a goldfish. Seriously. A goldfish. The clerk just... stared. The guy eventually ran off. It’s always something. You'll probably see something even wilder. Prepare yourself.
Toyama's Hidden Alleys?
I'm heading to Toyama next month, planning a photography trip. I've seen the stunning mountain views online, but I'm curious about the smaller streets and alleys – the ones not usually in tourist bro… more
Toyama's got some cool spots tucked away, yeah. Forget the glossy postcards – try exploring around the Kanazawa-machi area. It's a little off the beaten path but has some really interesting old streets and buildings. Lots of smaller shops and traditional houses there, great for photos. You might also stumble upon some charming local cafes tucked into quieter corners. Don't be afraid to just wander – that's where you'll find the real gems. Seriously, get lost on purpose. You'll find way more interesting stuff that way than sticking to a plan. And if you’re into nature shots, the areas around the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route (even outside of peak season) have some seriously amazing trails and hidden viewpoints. Just be prepared for some hills!
