DON QUIJOTE
Doing shopping in Tokyo is very easy! You don’t need to seek special places, specific neighborhoods or shopping centers in the center of the city, just look up and you’ll find many shops that, at any time, sell everything and more! You can buy a shirt while crossing the tracks of the train station, buy food and drink while waiting for the bus in one of the thousands convenience...

HIRAGANA PIXEL PARTY
Today I found a great application on the App Store to remind the Japanese alphabet in a fun way. If you are owners of iPhone, iPad or iPodTouch i really suggest you to try it!!! And you can get it for free! The app is called HIRAGANA PIXEL PARTY. Hiragana Pixel Party is basically a rhythm game, with a certain facet of teaching. Have you always wanted to learn Japanese? Well, I do not know if...

Products I can't live without !!! Part 1
I must admit, I’m addicted to Japanese drugstores! I can’t walk near a pharmacy without getting inside a moment to see if I need anything or if there are new products to try! Everything! I love everything about these pharmacies! I am especially intrigued by the department of products designed for men that are as large as the one dedicated to women! Perhaps it is a depiction of...

FOOD : YOYOGI VILLAGE
Tokyo is a city that continues to change! Even after few months, maybe some restaurants or shops that we used to know can be replaced by something else … But not only, there are also spaces created entirely new! It can seems strange because moving around the city does not seem that there are many free spaces to build but … The Japanese take opportunities where you least expect it! A...
