jen in tokyo: doraemon store, shinjuku scramble, fujiko museum, tokyo night market, gyukatsu
next stop: tokyo! We stayed in Tokyo for 4 nights and revisited some of my favorite restaurants: gyukatsu motomura and kani doraku. I also got the chance to visit the Fujiko museum (cameras were not prohibited in majority of the museum, but I loved seeing the history of Fujiko and how his progression to becoming a well-known artist to my favorite childhood friend, Doraemon!). This was my first time in Tokyo, and definitely a memorable experience. Now, onto the next destination...
Thanks for following along my Tokyo journey, and I wish you and your loved ones a happy holiday!

jen in hakone: black eggs?!, mt fuji, volcano sight, rural japan
Переглядів 217Місяць тому
Konnichiwa Hakone! We spent 2 nights in Hakone - these few days were meant to be a bit more relaxing as we walked quite a lot in HK and needed to rest before our next leg of the trip. It was nice being able to explore more rural areas of Japan and also experience the hot springs experience that everyone was raving about! It was quite cold in Hakone so the hot baths were perfect. I hope you enjo...

It's been a minute - thank you for still being with me! (I have been spending a lot of time in a new hobby I found). I travelled to Hong Kong for 8 days in late October - visited family, shopped, and ate lots of yummy food.

jen in florida: universal studios & walt disney world 2024
Переглядів 17210 місяців тому
This was the first time I ever visited Universal Studios Florida! I've visited Disney World many times as a kid (and am very grateful for that) and was always told by others that Universal Studios was for the adults while Disney World was for kids. Visiting Universal as an adult, I can say that is 100% not true! Maybe it's because I am and will always be a kid at heart. Growing up having my nos...
WHAT'S THAT SNACK (mukbang) - trying RARE & UNIQUE ASIAN flavored chips/snacks!
Переглядів 89Рік тому
WHAT'S THAT SNACK? I brought a variety of snacks from Asia to try and guess the flavor with my returning guest, Karen! Some of them are EXCLUSIVE and can't be bought here in the states (or at least very hard to find!). I guess you can call this a SNACK mukbang (definitely the most amount of chips I've consumed in a single sitting) - I hope you enjoyed watching Karen & I try these unique Asian s...

Instead of making monthly vlogs, I've decided to create an ongoing series called "New York Minute". The expression "a New York minute" refers to a very short period of time, emphasizing the fast-paced lifestyle and quick decision-making associated with New York City. I try to capture moments here and there in my busy life while living in NYC - I hope you enjoy this series and look forward to so...

Visiting Hong Kong after 5 years again felt so nostalgic. A lot of things stayed the same (eating lots of dan tats (egg tarts), egg waffles, curry fishballs, cha siu (roasted bbq pork), dim sum everyday, etc) yet changed. I was in a very different place in life 5 years ago (in college, working multiple internships in the city to get that $, dating, worrying about exams lol ) vs today (I've come...

Finally, jen in japan pt.3! I hope you enjoyed my three-part "jen in japan" series. This video focused on my travel in Kyoto, where I tried the best pork katsu I've ever tried in my life (Katsukura), explored Nishiki Market, dined yet again at a revolving sushi bar, tried many matcha desserts (some which I didn't include in this vlog) - the best matcha dessert being at Nakamura Tokichi Honton, ...

I haven't visited Asia in general for the past 5 years, and ahhh.. the efficiency and cleanliness of everything! You can tell from my face that I was quite tired from all the traveling on the airplane (16 hours from NY to HK, and another 4 hou...

In front of my house, I currently have trees that are yellow, red, and orange - it's so beautiful and gives me joy when I look out the window.

Can you believe that tomorrow is the last day of summer? For some reason, summer always felt like the shortest season, but this year was different. I think it's because I pushed myself to go out more and out of my comfort zone, so it feels like I made the most out of it. July & August was so much fun! Visiting SUMMIT One Vanderbilt (for the 2nd time!), solo traveling in Manhattan, blueberry pic...
