Japan

9:09 AM

I’ve got to agree with Harry Styles that Japan is one of the best countries he’d ever gone to. When I was in Japan, I did believe that everything Japan is great. When you hop out of the plane, you’ll feel the cold breeze of their country, a 9 degree celsius Tokyo welcomed us on our first day, I wasn’t physically prepared, as well as my wardrobe. I only have one heavy jacket on my suitcase, so it seems I don’t change in some of my pictures.

I have to disagree with the rumours saying that products in Japan are expensive. It is actually very cheap compared here in the Philippines. Stores such as Uniqlo, H&M, Zara and Forever 21 have shockingly very low prices. Shopping is a go to in Japan, go to Shibuya and you’ll find tons of what you need. Especially in this huge building called Shibuya 109, it’s like the tiangge of Japan.

And I have to brag, we didn’t have any tour when we traveled Japan. We went through the subways just to get to a certain place at Tokyo, it was indeed very stressful, but thankfully, the Japanese people were eager to help. And we got to go to Osaka by only riding the bullet train which was the coolest thing ever.

And one of the highlights of our trip was when we went to Universal Studios Japan, also known as the home of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter! Words can’t explain how cool the rides were. My favourite one was called Harry Potter and The Forbidden Journey. This is how it went: You go inside Hogwarts, you act like one of Harry’s friend and you go through him with his journeys, it’s like all the things he’d gone through the books in one ride.
