Why did I not eat here earlier???

June 18, 2017

Earlier this month, I made my way back to Fukuoka because I was going to surprise my granddad for his birthday. And since it’s pretty much impossible for me to catch the flight if I leave from Sasebo, I arrived in Fukuoka the night before. My main concern was finding a place to eat, since… Read More Why did I not eat here earlier???

I Saw Fireflies For the First Time!

June 13, 2017

On Sunday, I heard that you could see fireflies in Sasebo. Well, I guess they are probably in Fukuoka too, but I didn’t have a car or a license when I was in Fukuoka. So I googled and found out that the last day of his firefly viewing event at Yunoki was on Sunday and… Read More I Saw Fireflies For the First Time!

Rose Festival Pictures

June 7, 2017

You know, I could have sworn that I blogged about this already but apparently not. I really apologise for my lack of updates (and I know I say this a lot but I do mean it every single time) but I find that I’m really tired nowadays and my life isn’t that interesting. I wonder… Read More Rose Festival Pictures

Aerial Legends – Game Based on Huis ten Bosch!

May 25, 2017

Ok, so two days ago (or maybe three days), Huis ten Bosch released its first smartphone game! It’s a role-playing game that was co-developed with GoodLuck3 and it’s called Aerial Legends!! If you take a look at the world of the game, it looks extremely similar to Huis ten Bosch! The most obvious one in… Read More Aerial Legends – Game Based on Huis ten Bosch!

Update on how to get to Aso Farmland

May 22, 2017

For the moment, you need to forget everything that I’ve ever written on how to get to Aso Farmland. As of right now (April 2017), significant sections of the train leading to Aso is out of service. Even the Asoboy, that really cute train that I seem to have no affinity with, is now coasting… Read More Update on how to get to Aso Farmland

Studio Ghibli Exhibition in Nagasaki

May 18, 2017

So in the last post, I remembered that I haven’t blogged about the Ghibli exhibition. Which is odd because it was AMAZING and I love Ghibli so normally I share news about it immediately. But better late than never and the exhibition is still going on if you want to visit. The Studio Ghibli Exhibition… Read More Studio Ghibli Exhibition in Nagasaki

Ganbarou, Kumamoto Castle!

May 14, 2017

Back to a brief recap of the Kyushu trip/update on what has changed(: I’m going to skip over the Nagsaki days because: 1. You have already heard (and will hear) a lot about Sasebo from me.2. Not much has changed for Nagasaki since my trip in 2014. There is the Ghibli exhibition going on now… Read More Ganbarou, Kumamoto Castle!

Mifuneyama Rakuen with Totoro and Friends

May 11, 2017

I meant to have this post up during Golden Week but I ended up being so drained that I only got around to writing it today. But Mifuneyamarakuen is seriously way too beautiful! But before I get to Mifuneyama rakuen, I just want to say that anyone who has not tried Starbuck’s American Cherry Pie… Read More Mifuneyama Rakuen with Totoro and Friends

Detective Conan Movie: Crimsom Love Letter

May 7, 2017

Hey everyone! I hope all of you who are in Japan managed to enjoy Golden Week. It’s peak season for Huis ten Bosch so I’ve been absolutely swamped with work! But I did manage to catch the latest Detective Conan movie before Golden Week started so I thought I’d just talk about it today. Image… Read More Detective Conan Movie: Crimsom Love Letter

Should you rent a car in Fukuoka? (+ Yanagawa in Spring!)

May 2, 2017

Time for the first part of the recap! I’m sure all of you have heard TONS of things about Fukuoka and to a lesser extent Yanagawa and Dazaifu by now so I want to focus on something different: Should you rent a car in Fukuoka (or anywhere else in Kyushu)? The answer if obvious if… Read More Should you rent a car in Fukuoka? (+ Yanagawa in Spring!)
