in the beginning...

It rained the morning...so there wasn't that many tourists in Arasaka where sennoji is located. Because it was a national holiday, there weren't that many shops open. Chiziji fish market would have been amazing if it was open;; They say the freshest fish are available here  Fortunately some …

Get up at 8, go to eat breakfeast at the same place I eat dinner, no a good choice. Buffe style and not very good.I go to find the Shinjuku sub-st. but this is hard... I get to Shinjuku st. and no one speaks any english. they just point and nod.So after 1 hour and 5 different ticket counters I find…

Today was Nikki and my first Tuesday adventure: walking around the Yamanote Line in Tokyo!  The Yamanote Sen (otherwise known as the Lime Green Line) is one of the life bloods of Tokyo.  It circumnavigates all the goodies that any visitor to Tokyo could wish to see, connecting all of …

Awsome country! Efficent, efficient, efficient. Makes Los Angeles look 3rd world. I was so overstimulated. Everything was interesting. I think we spent an hour and a half just in a pharmacy alone. Love the masks. Everyone wears dr. style masks around town to keep out the germs. If you sneezed peopl…

Traveled through Australia for 5 1/2 months, 1st month with a friend. After that on my own.

Despite being awake and on the road for nearly 24 hours, I'm doing pretty well.  I managed to find my way from the airport to the bus station on my first try, with only 2 Japense words - "kippu", which means "ticket" and "yoyaku" which means "reservation".  Now I have two and a half hours…

I am still in Seoul right now, but planning a RTW starting Sept 2007, bar getting into school (i find out April, so maybe I am planning just in case I don't haha) I want to go kind of untraditional RTW, as i have been to many Asian spots, and Oz. I want to travel to S.A., Africa, Europe, and hope to get on the Beijing to Lhasa, maybe the South Pacific if i haven't run outta cash! Email me if you wanna chat or give advice re: what i should see.

Got up at 5, to visit tsukiji, the fish market. Many people running, selling, buying (and a few tourists like me). I didn't have breakfast in one of the numerous sushis restaurants (6' in the morning, difficult for me to eat raw fish...). The place is amazing, and i was unable to recognize much am…

With a crazy $600 Jetstar fare, I decided to take another week off work to visit Tokyo and do some serious shopping/drinking.
