Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 5 Part 2: Enoshima Island

The second half of the day tour is Enoshima Island, well-known for its shrine to the goddess who brings love to those who pray for it! Enoshima is a mountain island, with observation decks on the peak, and the shrines spread out in two levels. There’s also a light house, an aquarium, and tons of […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 5 Part 1: Kamakura

Today, I booked a day tour to Kamakura and Enoshima Island through Japanican.com. Since I have 10 days to kill in Tokyo, and planning (and executing) can be a bit painful, a paid tour would be convenient.  It costs money, but since I’m traveling alone, getting to these places I booked will be more difficult […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 4: Yokohama

Another day of sleeping more than the usual because of the cold weather! I can imagine how hard it would be to actually work in Japan and wake up every morning. For today, I only have one thing on my itinerary – Yokohama! It’s a city I’ve always wanted to visit because of two anime […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 3 Part 2: Odaiba’s Unicorn Gundam & Sunset

After a 3PM lunch, I was thinking about where to go next. Shinjuku Gyoen, which was supposed to be for this morning? Roppongi to get a good view of Tokyo Tower at night? Then I realized it’s the best time to go to Odaiba because of the Gundam Unicord transformation (I thought this only happened […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 3 Part 1: Tokyo Tower, One Piece & Shiba Park!

I woke up late today (past 10 AM) because I slept late from blogging two days worth of posts. My morning itinerary was supposed to be Shinjuku Gyoen but since I’ve been there before, and since I’ve had enough Sakura from the other day, I decided to skip it for today. Morning I went up […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 2 Part 2: Unlimited Sakura!

Before I post the Sakura photos, I’ll take you to the rest of the day first. This really felt like one of the longest days ever, so please bear with the split posts. Imperial Palace After walking around at Ueno Park, up next on my itinerary is the Imperial Palace. As my feet are already […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 2 Part 1: Walking Around Ueno Park

Having slept at 8:30PM last night, I woke up at 6:30 and decided to start my day early! I no longer showered (because I showered before I slept, and that’s how Japanese people do it), so I just washed my face! My hostel does not have free breakfast, which I chose on purpose so that […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 1: Arrival and Akihabara!

This is it, my first Spring in Japan, and my first time to travel solo! I didn’t think twice about booking a flight when I saw Cebu Pacific’s promo. I have been to Japan several times, but I have always wanted to go in the spring time, when sakura (cherry blossoms) are in full bloom. […]

Keto: Bulletproof Coffee

One of the most important things you need when doing Keto is Bulletproof Coffee. This is the best way to start your day and I personally take this in replacement of breakfast. It’s packed with calories and fat enough to get your brain and energy running throughout the day. Ingredients Before we start, I would […]

Week 2: Weight Loss not much

Coming from an almost 10-lb weight loss on the first week, my second week of doing Keto showed underwhelming results. I only managed to lose 1.7 lbs, after hoping for another miracle week. This made me decide to stop taking my weight measurement on a weekly basis, rather, just get my measurements monthly instead. What […]
