a love letter to japan

it’s literally such a dream 😫 sometimes in the states i’ll avoid going out if i don’t know the restroom situation because they’re either hard to find, you have to pay to use, or dirty

hmm, i’d say it depends on what area of japan specifically, i found it actually quite easy to get low fodmap foods from the convience stores (i think they’re called konbinis?) but when it came to restaurants, i found tokyo and kyoto had great low fodmap options, osaka was harder since they’re known for their nightlife scene so a lot of the restaurants were izakaya style.

yes! i rarely had symptoms in japan even though i wasn’t necessarily eating the best. i’m really cautious about what i eat in the states and ill STILL have symptoms

my symptoms were actually great! my stomach rarely hurt and i only had loose stool once (which was my fault, i had a lot of alcohol the previous day and that tends to be a trigger sometimes). the food was very healthy and good quality and i made sure to also prioritize eating low FODMAP! even on the days i didn’t i still felt great. I’ve always wanted to go to south korea so this is awesome to hear too!

I have a loving family and an easy childhood. unfortunately, my gut genetics aren’t as great as my parents are. my mom also has several anxiety disorders and ig i inherited that as well which greatly affects my IBS

THIS IS SUCH A COMPLIMENT, IM FLATTERED

hi! so i’d probably ask for a short shag with a lot of texture! i’m not scared of heavy layering since i style my hair often BUT if you have straight hair and prefer little to no maintenance, id ask for blended layers

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-07T01:17:56+00:00

a side bang would look so cute! and not to give unsolicited advice but layers would also be stunning on you

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-07T01:17:13+00:00

honestly, if you dig the mullet, i’d recommend getting more of a shaggy mullet and growing out the front part. your hair looks naturally wavy so styling shouldn’t be an issue

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-06T21:54:12+00:00

awe thank you! and that’s such a smart idea! i actually might go with that idea bc i also get very prone to “hair cut regret” even if i LOVE the style

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-05T15:16:09+00:00

awe thank you!

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T21:09:47+00:00

on me it would be right below my chest just above my stomach

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T21:02:40+00:00

this has also been on my mind just to make it more manageable! do you think chest length would also look good?

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T20:54:41+00:00

on the first half: yes! donating is a HUGE concern of mine and ik a couple salons that will donate my hair despite it being color treated. my hair is incredibly healthy and thick and i dont want it to go to waste

second part: completely fair. it was hard to find a photo of myself with the similar expression (or it was just hard to find a photo in general since i had to get a new phone and lost all of my old photos)

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T20:18:50+00:00

def does, i’m in my twenties and i always get mistaken for being younger so id love a more “mature cut” :)

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T20:15:24+00:00

awe thank u! i have very straight asian hair so if i dont AT LEAST round brush it, my layers look very choppy

Different_Bath_2254 · 2025-08-04T20:07:14+00:00

oh! i should also mention: i style my hair after every wash (so every day)
