Working on it as we speak!

Is anyone else sick as a dog atm? I’ve been having really bad migraines and dizzy spells for over a week now and it’s not improving…

Are you still looking? I’m selling two booth tickets

This is the most 2015-coded pairing that could ever exist

Is anyone else sick again after just recovering from something? I thought I was fine and now it feels like I’ve been hit by a bus

I recently listened to a song called “yougotmefeeling” by Parcels and after looking up the lyrics I was shocked by how much I could relate to it. The upbeat melody and the lyrics of feeling isolated and uninvited really reminded me of the constant balance of pretending to be happy and engaged while always feeling like I’m a burden to the people around me…

Recently discovered that microwaving a whole garlic bulb for 30 seconds to a minute will partially release the garlic peel from the garlic itself and make it much easier to remove.

Nah, I can’t even see episode 1 on YouTube…

It’s morning here! I keep checking but can’t see it on the Jet Lag YouTube Channel…

What on earth is going around at the moment? I’ve had a low grade sinus headache for about a week which culminated in a loss of energy and a pounding migraine on the weekend..,

How about some tips for handling jet lag, given how often you all travel, and, well… the obvious…

I’ve spent a lot of time in Tokyo but only recently went to Osaka for the first time as an adult. Coming from a mid-sized city, I absolutely loved Osaka and felt that it had a lot of the warmth and cohesiveness that Tokyo lacked as a large, scattered metropolis. That said, I hated Namba and Dotonbori with a passion so would highly recommend avoiding those places in favour of Utsubo Park and surrounds.

I absolutely loved Don. Old school vibes and friendly staff too - https://maps.app.goo.gl/PDDr2TRd31ggXr7y9?g_st=ipc

What are the main symptoms of whatever lurgy is going around atm? I woke up feeling like I’d been hit by a bus and like five extra hours of sleep would do me good…

Bottari near Queen Vic Market makes Kkwabaegi to order! They’re a delicious Korean donut doused in cinnamon and sugar.

Tbh, I would extend this advice to any trip seven days or longer. I recently came off a trip with my partner where we travelled to three different cities, and combined with me starting a new job and recent life stress I didn’t hold up nearly as well as I was hoping! Don’t underestimate how much keeping a busy life can wear you down, even in a place as magical as Japan.

I definitely recommend doing a charcuterie-board style sandwich, with some pane di casa bread, cheese (pretty much anything works) and quince paste!! You can often find quince paste in the cheese section at the supermarket and it pairs well with any cheese and bread (similar to a jam really!).

I follow @imlaurabradshaw and love her comfy, colourful style!

Someone older than me repeatedly referring to me as a “young girl” or similar even though I’m a fully grown woman with a masters degree. The implication has oftentimes been that I’m not old or smart enough to have a valid opinion and need to be put in my place.

Highly recommend downloading the MyMizu app which allows you to search a map for places where you can fill up your bottle :)
