TOKYO SLUMBER PARTY

matcha ice cream and pagoda

For me, traveling is an inconspicuous collection of memories.  Every chance I get, I try to get out of my comfort zone and boy I did when I flew to Tokyo for a friendly reunion.  Such a dynamic city, unbelievably large and bustling for sure.  I was only there for three days but I tried to spend as much as I could with my friends from Manila, Philippines (I studied for four years there).  The amount of photos I took was scary but as promised here's a few photos....Click the link for more photos. 

these flowers lit up the dark alley

roppongi hotel slumber party lol

No one knows when I'll be able to go back to Tokyo. That's why I took lots and lots and lots of photos. Anyway, Roppongi Hills is such a nice area to stay. We all enjoyed it. It's close to everything. Plus don't forget to go to Mori Art Museum it has a great observatory floor.  

Top 5 Recommendations:
1. Roppongi Hills area--young, hip and international.
2. Takoyaki--Gindaco in Harajuku area is a good place to snack this snack.
3. Meiji Shrine--we were bummed because it was on renovation.  But it was a long singing walk nontheless :)
4. Asakusa--major flea market vibes
5. Just walk around and you'll find cute local shops. 

Song of the day:
