Sapporo Diaries: Tea Convention and Sentai Show
On April 19th and 20th, my boyfriend and I stayed the night in Sapporo! Mostly because I had a live show on Sunday, so I needed to stay the night. There also happened to be a Lupicia Tea event over the weekend, so I reserved to go on Saturday. April 19th: Time to head to…
Otaru Diaries: 2025 Snow Light Path
On February 15th, I went to Otaru to check out this year’s Snow Light Path! This year, it lasted from February 8th-15th, and since I was on vacation, Saturday the 15th was the last day I could experience it this year. My friend also wanted to hang out, so we spent the day in Otaru…
Otaru Diaries: Otaru Anime Party
On September 7th, I went to Otaru to go attend the annual Otaru Anime Party! I’ve heard about it the past couple of years, but I either had other plans, didn’t seem super up my alley, or no one else I knew was going. This year I decided to finally go see it, and some…
Sapporo Diaries: Summer Shopping
On July 27th, I went out to Sapporo to do some casual shopping, see what’s up locally, and to go get some good eats. I left on my normal bus, and arrived around 10:20. Instead of waiting for 11 to roll around for an early lunch, I headed to JS Pancake Cafe for a pancake…
Otaru Diaries: The 27th Snow Light Path
We went straight from Sapporo station to Otaru Chikko station by JR Train, because that station directly connects to Wing Bay, Otaru’s ball that had all the main event festivities for Snow Miku. Since we were arriving a bit after noon, we wanted to grab some food for lunch before heading to the main Snow…
Sapporo Diaries: The 74th Sapporo Snow Festival
This year the famous Sapporo Snow Festival was held from February 3rd-11th, and my boyfriend and I chose the second weekend to stay the weekend and hang out and check out the festivities. We decided pretty early on (learning from our lesson last year) that we wanted to stay the weekend to see the sights,…
Otaru Diaries: Pokemon Donuts and Happy Thanksgiving
November 23rd here happens to be a holiday this year, and aligns with American Thanksgiving, and also happens to be Japanese Labor Thanksgiving. Apparently the holiday is about being thankful and celebrating the labor people put into harvest, which is similar to American Labor Day and Thanksgiving combined (go figure). My boyfriend wanted to go…
Sapporo Diaries: Vietnamese Food on Sports Day
October 9th was a holiday! Happy Sports Day, not the school event, but the national holiday. Even though it was a three day weekend, I decided to just go on a solo date on the 9th (I did think about staying the weekend, but didn’t find anywhere good). My main goals of the day were…
Sapporo/Otaru Diaries: Sapporo Pride and Autumn Festivals
September 16-18 was a three day weekend for me, and also happens to be the weekend of Sapporo Pride, along with a ton of other events! This year I did want to partake more in the festivities, since I decided not to go at all last year. Since I also had the extra day off,…
Kutchan Diaries: Chinese Food and Too Many Donuts
On September 2nd, I took a solo day trip to Kutchan, because I felt like going out after staying at home for two weeks. Why Kutchan? Well, for one, there’s a Chinese place there that looked pretty good and has been on my radar, and I figured it’d be a nice change of pace from…
