the Cat @ 日本

I have to thank everyone here, for everything. It was really fun, I had a chance to meet new people, I learned a lot of things, and I could finally practice my english! (can I say I'm fluent yet?)

Basically, this was a huge leap on my professional carrier, and made me find a new goal on my personal live too.

Japan... I'll be back to you one day!

-

I will probably have no internet access until I am back, as I am not sure I will be able to connect to the hot spots on the airports. But that's just two days. You can take it.

I'll take a few more pictures, and post them when I'm able. (I hope to reach 100 posts!)

Sakura Season (Part III)

Sakura Season (Part I)

Cherry Blossom season starts around now, exactly when I'm leaving. Sigh, what to do, eh?

I was going to go to Tokyo again, and take more pictures, but didn't manage to =/

Japan has these special cans for DragonBall.

I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WENT THERE OH MY GOD IT’S MY DREAM TO GO TO THIS PLACE AAAHHHH <3333

I didn't really gooooo... It was full that day, and I'd need a reserve. So I just took pictures and recorded a few things :3

Inokashira Park

I've just been collecting pictures of this place. There's so much to show. The place is really nice, good for a date, for a walk, for everything... And it was a good thing that I waited so long to publish it, since now, end of march, the flowers are blossoming, so I can take a few better pictures ^^

As I said, it's a park. It has trees, paths, a small part from children at the beginning and a lake in the middle of it.

The lake has ducks, koi fish and boats! xDDD

There is also some kind of 'protected' park in there, but I wasn't able to find out how to get in xD There is the Ghibli Museum too, which I can't go, unfortunately =/ And just leaving the part, we have a cool street with a lot of cool stores :3

I have said before that I love Japan because of its cold weather.

It does take a while to get used to it, but oh goodness. The feeling of being warm in the cold is sooo good i_i All you have to do is put on two or three coats and you are ready to party!

But I love how much Japan is warm... You're asking yourself: what?! right?

Almost 'everything' in japan has a heater :3 Everyone has one, to start with. The toilet sit is warmed up xDDD Rooms are usually soo cozy :3 And the sits on the train? Warm breeze comes from under them.

Also, everywhere has a microwave oven, so you can warm you just-bought bentô right on the spot. And you don't need to keep things like chocolate and water on the freezer, because the regular temperature is good enough to keep them okay xD Also, you don't need to get dizzy because it's too warm, nor get stinky because it's too warm. Nor do you need to go back home with a bunch of noisy students and sweaty middle-aged man and grumpy-faced old ladies.

Ah, on that matter... while it's pretty easy to get lost on the trains/subways, it's also very easy to find your way.

There ARE too many lines and different routes of the same line, BUT everything is well explained on both the station/plataform and inside the train.

Also, they have a timetable they follow strictly. You can't ever say you're late because of the train. It just doesn't happen!
