I am in Tokyo

I was born in Yokohama, Japan.

Grown up in Tokyo and Sydney, Australia ( Bondi ).

Sydney was such a beautiful place.

I've traveled to Melbourne a couple times which I am madly in love with.

London, I stayed for a month and CA, USA is where I have my relatives in so I've visited quite often, I thought it was beautiful, really coutry place up in north.

And now I am back in Tokyo, been here for 2 years now and

I am looking for something beautiful every day.

Japan is such a small island with a lot of things squeezed in together.

There is no much blank space, the ocean water isn't crystal clear

Car roads are narrow and packed, there are paper advertisements and posters everywhere.

I mean, if you go to different cities to explore I am sure there are beautiful walls and beautiful flowers blooming and long wide and huge bridges crossing over the sea too in Japan.

No offence to Japan really, I do love my home country.

But in the end of the day, I did find something really beautiful in Japan too.

No matter what country you go to

this is where you end up seeking beauty and nourishing your eyes and soul.

Coffee is where our hearts belong to.

Oh home sweet home.

Starbucks

"Coffee geek friendly"

Oh thanks...

I really want to find beautiful places, beautiful things and

what's so good about Japan, and deliver the inspiration to the world...

I will keep exploring... keep seeking.

This weekend I am traveling to somewhere quite inspirational♡

Finally seeing my bestie! Yay♡

I will blog again.

Holy-Day at Canal Cafe

Hello there! Good evening from Japan.

Japan has these amazing random holidays around April-May ( a lot of them. )

and today it was a normal Wednesday and a holiday so

it was a time for my bestie and I to hang out to explore Tokyo!

Canal Cafe next to Iidabashi station.

It's a riverside cafe that I have dreamt of coming!

We waited a bit but patient Mina

"That's all right we can wait."

And we waited in a line.

It was a beautiful cafe, more beautiful than I have expected actually.

I have read about this cafe on my favorite blog though,

it was stunning, surrealistic even.

And how many years have I dreamt of having someone leaning on this fence thingy

looking out at the river in front of me,

and taking photos of them!

Such a dreams come true day.

Bitter sour iced coffee.

( My expression level; bitterness. )

Only if Tokyo rivers were more blue or transparent.

It was just deep green so, well, um it's good to see, not very photogenic.

That was also one of my dreams to stick my feet out of the fence and touch the water...

( Couldn't quiet reach the water... but they were close, to the boat. )

Pink♡

I am a white loving girl but I always think I like pink as well.

Well... it I was to pick between blue and pink I would definitely pick pink straight away anyway.

Today's ootd was a casual white-pink outfit ( mostly from Japanese stores. )

Pink gaucho pants : Auntie Rosa ( My fav clothes store. )

Accessories : Forever21 and Bershka

Tops and hat unknown but they are loose and white.

Today was a wonderful day.

We have two working days ahead and then we have a looong weekend holiday coming up!

Exciting! Thanks to May!

Happy Spring!

My weekday

Hello!

As I always write, I wear white... almost only white because my crush told me he liked me in white...

#Hopelessromantic

#Crushproblems

#Girlproblems

Sighs.

I like the color white itself too so it's all good :)

At Ebisu Garden Place - Tokyo, Japan.

Jacket : H&M

Tops : MIIA ( Japan )

Skirt : Auntie Rosa ( Japan )

Shoes : R&E ( Japan )

Coffee : Starbucks mocha.

And of course I am writing about a cafe today too!

Gorilla Coffee Tokyo Japan

( From Brooklyn )

My crush tweeted about this place and I have always wanted to go to Gorilla Coffee since I first heard about them coming to Japan and...

Now I am addicted.

I am always here and I sometimes feel like I could even say I suddenly got sick to the boss in the middle of the day and leave work and stay here the rest of the day.

It's just really.... good.

I like the big long table in the middle of the cafe.

It's tall and I actually like the white tiles!

Oh and... I must mention this that

the bean they use for latte/cappuccino is called espresso a go go and

the cappuccino I had was really, no jokes the best cappuccino I had this year.

They bring out the flavor of the milk really really well!

I am not really a fan of milk + espresso beverages but it was beautiful... peaceful taste too.

This is the table that I was talking about♡

You can see FRIDAYS out of the window from the second floor.

It's nice. Only if there weren't so many constructions going on around.

At least you feel peaceful up there...♡

Honestly, white is much better than black do you agree?

When I have my own cafe I will put a lot of white tables and some dark browns,

white tables are just so photogenic! I am looking for cafes with white tables but can't really find any in Tokyo...

Maybe I haven't tried hard enough!

Will write again soon.

Fuglen Cafe

Hello lovers.

Cherry blossom season is over...

Wonder if there are still yet to be blooming sakura in a colder place like Yamanashi-ken.

Fuglen cafe, it's a famous cafe right next to Yoyogi park.

My bestie introduced me to this place years ago and it's still a favorite place to go to.

To me it's completely normal though I have 4 phones.

( One stopped working. )

These are my iPhone6 on the top and iPhone5S the one in a vivid pink case.

I didn't know my belongings were so pink.

My favorite there is a mocha, in their beautiful mug.

Can't really have one at the cafe though.

Usually taking them away for work.

That cafe is always packed but it sure is a comfy place to stay when there are seats.

I remember my bestie and I going there on a snow storming day last year.

Hope they will be there for good.

Fuglen is a Yoyogi's icon to me.

Monz Cafe Monzennakacho

Good morning!

This article is about "Monz cafe" just near Monzen Nakacho station.

Beautiful old street.

Black and white/grey looks really good in here!

Our ootds looked good on this street!

It's a super cozy place.

They have got about 10 seats inside and

They don't have a large counter.

I like it, I want to open a cafe as small as that.

Our favorite magazine, Casa Brutus.

It's a thick magazine with a lot of information!

We needed to buy this magazine immediately!

I was dying for sugar... = Affogato!

It was the most beautiful affogato I have seen.

The ice cream was fresh and icy.

Super good on a humid day!

They have only photogenic food don't they...?

It's 2minutes away from the station,

if I lived near by I would pop in every day before work to chill...

It was a great experience!

Thank you

Anna

Jinnan Cafe Shibuya

Good evening!

Finally home chilling after a long train ride...

Loving my new mug♡

Today for lunch I went to JINNAN cafe in Shibuya

that I always wanted to go to, seeing them on a cafe magazine.

There weren't many people at first around 2pm though

it was getting crowded later at something like 2:40ish.

Maybe they are famous for coffee and cake I assume.

The tomato sauce based pasta with crab meat was great!

Really enjoyed it.

It was a very large two story cafe and there were many families.

I would go with my friends next time♡

When I was looking for JINNAN cafe I found 4 other cafes that I saw on a magazine nearby

and I am now super excited that I will have plenty of cafes to go to for lunch!

Can't decide which one to go to tomorrow♡
