There was a furniture fair in Makuhari, so off I went. This time I really should not walk around until I collapse like last time (T_T) A cake shop inside Akihabara Station A proper cake shop (FLO PRESTIGE) …
I went not just around central Tokyo but all the way out to Chiba. I was doing the legwork out to Chiba to get good furniture even a little cheaper. Minami-Funabashi, where the IKEA is, isn’t as far as I…
There was a game show in Makuhari, so I went along. The atmosphere of the show has changed a lot. There weren’t any huge events this year, but the mobile booths have grown enormously. The likes of KDDI a…

One nice thing about Chiba is that there are loads of places worth riding out to by bike. Last Saturday I finally had some free time for the first time in ages, so I headed out thinking I’d go see some a…
I went to the ramen shop that’s supposed to be the tastiest in Chiba. I’d had a bad experience here before and had sworn never to go back, but when I stopped by Chiba Station around 9 p.m. looking …
