Oh gosh. Here we go. This was so overdue… it took me 3 months to get the motivation to finish this. This is the shittiest thing I’ve written. I had no deep thought during this trip and this is just a recap of all the superficial things I did.

Can you believe it? Japan? For a third time? And this time, my dear friend Lauren is with me? I wonder what adventures are there…

Now, we look at my second time in Japan. This was the setting stone for my independence and want to go out alone. I have never felt such joy as I did with Jacquelyn in Tokyo. Matcha, mango, and Thomas Mao. What a joyous trip it was.

I have been to Tokyo three times as of April 30th, 2026. It is my favorite city in the entire world. I could talk about Tokyo for hours and hours. This is a reflection about the first time I went to Japan.
