Hello December✨ (updates, livestream recording)

Hey everyone!! 🤗💕

Hope you've all been well!! I've been struggling a bit with energy levels, the doctor said my thyroid is being a bit crap so I may need to go on medication to help with that. I told him I'll wait a few months and see if it sorts itself out, as I feel like maybe it just needs some time to recover from surgery? Who knows but figured it's worth a shot to wait a bit be...

A Trip to Yamadera | Yamagata's Mountain Temple

On Thursday I convinced Chris to join me for a trip to Yamadera, the cool temple that is located on a mountain top in Yamagata Prefecture! He's been before but never during the Autumn season so he was curious how it would look. I've wanted to visit for years, it's probably the last major "sightseeing spot" in Tohoku that I've yet to see.

The drive on the way to the temple was almost as gr...

Going to be a bit MIA for a while!

Hey everyone! Happy Sunday from Japan, I hope you’re all doing well❤️

I’m going back home to Canada for some not-so-fun reasons tomorrow, while I'm there I’ll be taking a break from social media for the most part. I’m planning to be back in Japan by early November if possible🙏🏻

Instead of a livestream this month, please leave me any questions you might have about J...

Roadtrip to the Coast of Iwate 🌊✨

Welcome to the Kitayamazaki Cliffs of Iwate Prefecture! 🌊✨

This amazing coastline view is 8 kilometres long and is full of interestingly shaped rocks and caves. My friends and I took a roadtrip here from Sendai (total drive time was about 3.5hr) and headed to the observation platforms overlooking the ocean. It was such a beautiful area even before we got to the views of the water!&nb...

Snapshots from a Weekend in Tokyo ☀️

Hey guys! Hope you've had a nice weekend 🤗


Apologies for no new video this week, I actually went down to Tokyo a few days ago for the purpose of filming a rooftop picnic vlog, but something came up and one of my friends was having a rough time so we just spent it chilling together instead of filming. 


I got some Neko Neko Post work done, and got to catc...

Attention Postcard Club Members❣️💌

I mail out postcard club mail at the end of every month💌 Since the pandemic started, each month 1 or 2 postcards are being returned to me without a clear explanation as to why :( 99% of them are from the USA (I'd say 75% of them are from Washington State), and I had one from Canada recently. 


I've confirmed that the postage is correct, and the post offi...
