Taipei Diaries: Spring Family Trip, Taipei 101, and Ximending
This year, my schools’ Spring break is March 23-April 7, which means two weeks of deskwarming for me. I decided to take the first week off to go travel to Taiwan again (I had lots of fun last year and couldn’t wait to go back at a warmer time!), and it just happened to also…
Sapporo Food: Ice Cream and Parfaits
Arguably Hokkaido is most known domestically and internationally for their milk. More broadly, the dairy, and even within the prefecture there’s huge pride on it too.

Here’s Part 2 of my winter break trip! This post is about the return trip back, starting from my flight to Haneda Airport, then to New Chitose, and going home from Sapporo! The break felt long but short at the same time… My flight was a little before midnight on January 6, and this was…
Sapporo Diaries: Oden and Seasonal Drinks
For various reasons, I stayed the night in Sapporo from December 1st to the 2nd. This was my last forseeable time I would be in Sapporo before leaving to go home for the holidays, so I thought I’d make the most of it while I was there. December 1st: I got on the soonest bus…
Sapporo Diaries: Fall Vibes on a Long Weekend
November 3-5 was another three day weekend here in Japan, as November 3rd is Culture Day, and this time around, I figured I would take advantage of the longer weekend to stay in Sapporo. I thought about it early enough that I booked accomodation in Sapporo in advance, so I wouldn’t end up with an…
