Sakura season is long over and it turns out that I didn’t manage to make it to any spots apart from Mifuneyama rakuen. But, I did manage to take a few photos here and there and thought I’d just share them with you. First, from near my place: The second is from Sasebo city. I’m… Read More Sakura 2017: Here and There in Sasebo
Sakura season was a little late this year, but it’s finally here (and by the time I’m writing this, almost over). Luckily for me, I had friends visiting so on my off day, I was out bringing them around instead of staying in my apartment and trying to become comatose. We ended up visiting Mifuneyama… Read More Sakura 2017: Mifuneyama Rakuen
Alright, I’m finally here with the last sakura post of the year. Long after the sakura have fallen. Anyway, the last place that I went to this year was… my neighbourhood XD I did this two years ago too, so I’ll try not to post the same type of photos. First up, the sakura near… Read More Sakura 2016: Around the Neighbourhood
Hey everyone! So last week, when the sakura were in full bloom, I headed out to Fukuoka Castle to get some pictures! Unfortunately, most of them were rather blurry (shows you how lousy I am as a photographer), but I do hope you enjoy these not-so-terrible ones. I basically walked in from Akasaka station, so… Read More Sakura 2016: Fukuoka Castle
Hello! I just came back from Kumamoto yesterday! I had a job hunting event there, and since it started at 10am, I decided that instead of rushing, I would go one day early and spend the night. The sakura absolutely did not influence my decision to go early, but I decided that since I was… Read More Sakura 2016: Kumamoto Castle
On the third day of our Kagoshima trip, my mom and I spent the day hitting the tourist spots we both wanted to go (I’d go everywhere, if possible, but my mom doesn’t seem interested in the Meiji Restoration or the Satsuma Rebellion. Our first stop: Saint Francis Xavier Park The first stop was Saint… Read More Sakurajima Part 3: Kagoshima City
Because I came back to Japan relatively late, I thought I’d have missed the sakura. And I did, well, most of it. When I came back, the sakura were basically more-or-less fallen, although one or two trees were still in bloom. Like this. I’m just glad I made it back for any sakura, to be… Read More Sakura 2015: Fukuoka Castle and Huis Ten Bosch
Here’s my last sakura post for this year! And just in time for the new school year too! My last spot would be Muromi, aka, the place where I stay. I decided to walk around my neighbourhood one day, and I was really surprised to see how many sakura trees there were. Look, you can… Read More Sakura 2014: Muromi
You know, I just realised that I’ll be in Singapore for the entire sakura season next year. Oh well, labeling the post with the year makes things easier for me. So after I made one trip to Fukuoka Castle to see the sakura, I decided that I should make a second trip to see the… Read More Sakura 2014: Fukuoka Castle (Night)
Fukuoka Castle is so pretty that I need to break it up into two posts: daytime and nighttime. On Sunday, Yuka and I went to Fukuoka castle (a first for the both of us) to take Sakura photos. It’s a really pretty place. The castle is basically a ruin, but there are still walls and… Read More Sakura 2014: Fukuoka Castle (Daytime)
