#100 Ways to Travel #Tokyo Travel #Register for a September Hotel Sleep Tester #Why Did You Suddenly Choose to Travel Alone in Tokyo? #Love this casual photo It represents so much that I can travel alone 🥰 In fact, this idea has been around for a long time But has not had this motivation Sometimes I want to go certain places Have to check if anyone around wants to go/have time to go Because I'm crazy, I have to rely on my friends around me to take me there If he doesn't go, I can't go Over time, I feel like I want to go wherever I want This departure is a big test for Lu Chi Thank you so much to every friend around me who has provided me with information/feedback It made me learn to read one of the apps for car rides Although I don't know everything yet, I feel relieved Traveling alone for the first time, I have to spend more time finding my way every day than usual The first couple of days because to follow the arranged drive Rush to find the right platform By the third day start to adjust yourself The previous class was a little early and moved the schedule on its own Then looking for a Shinkansen is less afraid of being in a hurry Japanese people So Far are very nice Every time I find my way I want to rely on myself But I really can't find it, and I have to ask someone in a hurry Every time I ask the Japanese are very keen to teach me Seeing me a girl, and telling me to cheer up😂 Very loving The whole trip had been worried about whether it would feel boring It turns out no Still enjoy the quiet moments alone (I thought E people would be afraid of boredom, but I'm a mutable i person 😂) As it turns out, Gemini has two personalities Usually traveling with a companion, I would expect each other to help take beautiful photos To be honest, it would be a bit disappointing not to be able to take pictures But the other person doesn't like taking pictures But this time my companion is the tripod The default won't take any beautiful photos No expectations and no disappointments Instead, they will observe the surrounding landscape very quietly If there is a partner next door, they will hang out and talk It's completely two different things Of course I enjoy the pleasure of traveling with a companion🥰 Only I was surprised that I quite enjoyed solo travel But also because of road obsession, spend more time and leg bone strength than others I was so tired for the first three days that I woke up with cramps and pain every night when I went to bed Also because the initial rush car did not know the time and often nothing in the stomach, or randomly eat It didn’t start to adapt to everything until the fourth day Reward yourself with a good meal😎 It was a journey of 5 days and 4 nights I am grateful for every friend who is worried about me They ask me every night if I'm safe Haven't returned to the hotel yet I'm afraid I'm missing I know you are surprised I just like surprises😂 I didn't expect it😝 Actually, it's really cool to be alone 🤣 Dominate hotel rooms, like what time you take a shower or what time you go to bed You can like not to turn on the air conditioner (I'm afraid of the cold). Everything is up to me. As a freedom lover, I enjoy it Of course it made my journey possible Sincerely thank you for helping me think about my itinerary and teach me how to use apps Teach me how to take the airport bus, teach me how to buy a JR Pass I also found all the road maps for each of my you/you🥰 very touched I feel so blessed to have your care You have made me reduce my fears and stress before I leave (Severe road obsession really scared) This time I am really satisfied😍 Next time I won’t be scared and I’ll be able to take my parents on a trip Finally no need to rely on others (so much) 😂 Because I don't know how to take the subway yet, I only know how to take JR Hopefully next time will be more progress 💪🏻💪🏻 Friends, please like me 😂😂😂 #It turns out that one person can have fun There are so many beautiful photos when traveling alone All thanks to this photographer @photoinjapanjp Patient, attentive, and easy to talk to😂 If you are interested, you can ask him to take a photo📸 Photo Credit @photoinjapanjp #photoinjapanjp #portraitphotography #portrait #stylish #ootd #japan #tokyo #tokyo #tokyophotographer #solo #traveltokyo #hkinfluencer #hkigers #hkkol #discoverjapan #travelphotography #travelblogger #visitjapan #visitjapan

👉🏻Swipe left to see more 📍Feng Lai Fang #NAGOYA #金山 - It was my first time traveling to Nagoya. As a rookie tourist, I still had to do some standard itineraries. Although I didn’t plan to eat at this restaurant for dinner that night, unfortunately the restaurant I wanted to eat at was fully booked and couldn’t accommodate the walk-in. But it doesn't matter, Kanayama Komachi is a group of izakayas, there are still many choices, skewers, dumplings, ramen and sushi, etc. 🍣 Then we decided to go to Furaibo, which I had wanted to visit, and Teba Sake Izakaya is one of the best along with Sekai no Yama. 🏮 We ordered the signature Teba-sama (¥1166), which is 10 pieces for two people, and ordered grilled chicken skin (¥198), deep-fried chicken skin (¥462), Hatcho miso-grilled dumplings (¥462), and Teppanyaki tsukune (¥792). The taste of Teba is quite strong in pepper and salt, the skin is fragrant and crispy, and the meat is soft and juicy. Although the taste is not amazing, it has a kind of charm. The more you eat, the more you like it. It is really first-class as a side dish. According to the instructions, first use the joint of the chicken wing tip, and then grab the other end and put it into your mouth. Sure enough, the whole piece of Teba meat can be taken out~ Another dish, Teppanyaki Tsukimi Tsukune, is a chicken burger on a teppan with an egg yolk on top and a thick, salty-sweet sauce. It looks like a giant chicken stick. The texture is accompanied by the refreshing cartilage, the fragrant egg yolk liquid and the sauce. It is a super delicious dish. This dinner was unexpectedly very satisfying. The traditional famous food restaurant is indeed not in vain. 😜 - 🍗Feng Lai Fang 🏡Address: 〒460-0022 Aichi Prefecture Nagoya City Naka District Kanayama 4-6-9 Kanayama Komachi 📌MAP CODE: 4 198 742*35 ☎️Tel: +81 52-322-8281 🕙Opening hours: 17:00-23:00 (Sun-Thu); 17:00-00:00 (Fri-Sat) ——————————————— 🌿The above pictures and texts are copyrighted by Bobowannaeat, and reposting requires authorization 🌿If you like my sharing, please ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ, ʟɪᴋᴇ, ꜱʜᴀʀᴇ & ꜱᴀᴠᴇ ❤️ 🌟Stay tuned in to my posts please 𝙁𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬 @bobowannaeat (ㆁωㆁ*) . . . . #hkfoodie #foodiehk #punchcard #日本自由行 #日本自驾游 #discoverjapan #visitjapanhk #nagoya #visitjapanhk #hkfoodie #bobotravelling #爱知県 #风来坊 #风来坊 #手羽先 #日本景点

The silence here tells a thousand stories. Every turn, every gaze, every step feels like stepping deeper into a forgotten world. Kyoto’s magic isn’t just in its temples — it’s in these quiet, hidden corners too. #KyotoMagic #Arashiyama #HiddenKyoto #ZenVibes #DiscoverJapan

Come during cherry blossom season or autumn and you’ll be treated to a postcard-perfect scene. Peaceful, scenic, and easy to reach — this lake is a must for anyone exploring the Fuji Five Lakes area. #lakekawaguchi #mtfuji #japantravel #fujiview #fujifivelakes #naturejapan #kawaguchiko #discoverjapan #scenicviews #fujiadventure

If you’re in Kansai during autumn and want to experience something a little magical, Hikone Castle’s night light-up is a must. The whole place transforms into an autumn dream—glowing leaves, serene gardens, and gentle reflections dancing on the pond. The best part? Adorable Hikonyan lanterns lighting the way, adding a touch of whimsy to the night. Pro tip: go on a windless night if you can—the reflections on the water are incredible. Honestly, this was one of the most unforgettable experiences I’ve had in Japan. Peaceful, beautiful, and just the right amount of magical. Don't sleep on this!
