Sapporo Diaries: Kirby and Starbucks Hunting
Happy birthday to the emperor! Febraruary 23rd was a holiday for the aforementioned reason, so I decided to go out to Sapporo for various reasons.

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.

Sapporo Diaries: A Chill-y Weekend
On the weekend of January 20th, I stayed the weekend in Sapporo, mostly because my boyfriend suggested it in case we had a long bus ride again, and to make our limited time in Sapporo worth it. I just wanted to go out that weekend to hang out after not going out after two weeks.…
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…

My boyfriend wanted to go…
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…
Sapporo Diaries: China Festival and Spy x Family Exhibition!
I went out to Sapporo on October 21st, because I figured it was about time to go out of town again, and also various events happened to line up that weekend, which made it all the better to go. First up on the agenda after getting off the bus was checking out the China Festival…
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…
