I took a quick trip to Tokyo this weekend! I secured tickets to a concert of a group I’m a huge fan of (and their last one as a whole group…), and so I made a slightly last minute trip. When in Tokyo, get boba, and especially, Truedan. It was on the way to my… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea (ウーロンミルクティー（鉄観音)) – Truedan
Today I’m in Sapporo hanging out for the three day weekend! I went to the Sapporo Olympics Museum, and then did some casual shopping the rest of the day.

Today’s our first full day in Hiroshima! We went to visit the A-Dome in the morning, and checked out the Yamato museum in the afternoon.

Yesterday was my birthday! This was actually my drink from yesterday, but I was busy all day that I didn't have time to write my post, so apologies for the delay.

Today I went to Shiraoi to check out the National Ainu Museum, Upopoy! I would have gotten boba there…except it seems like there isn’t any local boba at all.

I’m heading home from my brief short vacation to Furano today! I left early in the morning to make a stop in Sapporo for lunch, pick up boba, and then go home.

Not a boba snack, but I'm finally getting around to actually opening another Taiwan snack I bought almost a year ago (oops!). It's popcorn! It's a packaged snack though, and the lady assured me that unopened the contents would last for a while. I was at Taiwan station with my grandma to go eat at… Continue reading Tieguanyin Popcorn – Magi Planet
This morning I had a dentist appointment, and a variety of factors led us to the somewhat recently opened R&B Tea located in Zion market.
