I don't have a cat, but here's Boomer for tax purposes

Ugh I was in a permanent state of inebriation on my last visit to Japan. Those Strong Zero chuhais were life.

Soft drinks in Asia are not as sweet as US. I can't drink regular Coke without getting a sore throat these days.

Lot fewer preservatives as well. I don't remember eating a single thing there that upset my stomach

Also dried cuttlefish is yummy. Always wanted to try the fried baby crabs, but they were pricey.

There's a Japanese market in town. Found a 12 pack of pop-in-the-toaster adzuki & chestnut paste taiyaki. I was so excited. So good.

Japan: cheap booze, awesome snacks, all in one convenient little country.

Cheap booze? Do you mean the nomihodais?

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Yeah, well that and you can literally buy beer and chuhai at the 100 yen store. Which are EVERYWHERE.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Well I suppose they have a bigger single can mixed drink selection, but single major brand beers else where are roughly the same price.

I just got back from a 3-month study abroad. 10/10, would return just for the food.

I went on a 2-week study abroad to Greece. I feel homesick about it sometimes. I'm going back 100%

I hadn't even left Japan before deciding I'd be back someday. Studies abroad are amazing experiences. Good luck in getting back to Greece!

I've come to the conclusion i am way to picky to travel to cool places. I'd die of starvation.

What, exactly, is a Yakisoba sandwich and can you describe it to me very very slowly and in a deep voice?

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Looks like stirfried yakisoba noodles on bread.

Odd, I kept parsing the name as a town or something. Not as "yaki soba." I'm a dumb dumb.
