Listen to this... just listen... it’s so friggin’ beautiful and dreamy. I feel like I’m traveling in outer space into an Asian inspired utopia. @_@

Childhood dreams can come true!

Last month I went to a Final Fantasy orchestral concert and saw Nobuo Uematsu in person. It was totally surreal as they played masterpieces from my childhood... and I was there sitting in the 6th row, there with the original composer and these talented musicians... in Japan! No lie, I totally got teary eyed... I was like “Oh man... this is real... this is happening. One of my dreams come true!”

Side note: sorry the picture is so unclear. XD

I really dig old school architecture of Japan and how it mixes so beautifully with nature. I feel so lucky to have experienced this on my own terms. 

Honestly, I really wanted someone to be with during all my trips in Japan... but seeing that I’m super introverted and so naturally a loner, I figured it would be best to just go at it alone and try to have a good time. 

And I did. Whatever I did, I did because I wanted to do it, not because I was following someone else or some group. If I wanted to take a break, I took a break. If I wanted to eat, I went to go eat. If I felt like sitting down and just pausing to enjoy the surrounds, I did just that. I did whatever the heck I wanted. 

I really encourage you all to try traveling alone just so you can feel how amazing it is to do what you want without worrying about any companions. I mean, yeah, company is great at times, but it’s truly nice to do something for yourself and enjoy your own company. It’s truly amazing to realize you can treat yourself and you don’t need anyone else but yourself to feel okay and happy.

My first solo vacation

I learned so much going on my first solo vacation. I traveled around Kansai for about five days. When I took that plane to the area, I was quite intimidated because all my life, I’ve usually been too afraid to take chances on my own, and now here I was on a leisurely trip all by myself, for myself. I was set on enjoying myself... you know, chillin’ in solitune. Ya dig?

Hello, from Japan!

Side note: I’ve never been high before or anything but I imagine it must be how I feel when I have these Friday nights at home zoning out to really good music on repeat, eating snacks, and feelin’ myself. 

Anyway, hello Tumblr. Long time no see with this account of mine. I think I’ve decided to revive this place with my journeys in life. 

Lately I’ve been traveling quite a bit... When I lived back in the states, I never really went anywhere. But now I live in Japan, and I wander around having some solo adventures to places like the temples of Kyoto, the deer parks of Nara, the busy streets of Osaka, the glorious neighborhoods of Tokyo, the fashionista world in the next country over in Seoul, Korea, and the beautiful country sides of everything inbetween. 

I thought I would come to Japan and make friends to travel with, but funny enough I really learned how to truly be on my own and see the world independently. 

Uh, so yeah, I may be posting about all that here now... and post pretty much whatever I want because it’s my Tumblr and why not, eh?
