I don’t eat to live, I live to eat.
Due to jetlag, we were able to wake up quite early today without any issues. We leisurely packed up, checked out and then headed to Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodles, where one can eat the famous Michelin-Star ramen. But don’t expect a spontaneous walk-in kind of experience. ...Continue reading
After over 16 hours of watching multiple Hollywood, Korean, and Chinese movies, listening to random podcasts and audiobooks, and eating questionable plane food, we finally landed in Tokyo at their Haneda Airport. The commute (by metro) from Haneda airport to our hotel was a short 30 minutes (much faster than if we flew into the Narita Airport). ...Continue reading

Unfortunately, it was not… Continue reading NYC Day 3: Food and Shopping Galore!
My day started early with a 6am flight to catch, but I really enjoyed having the option to park and fly. I used to hate having to rush down when the taxi/uber got here.
