    Hi Sarah I really enjoyed this upload. I find the traditional and relaxing setting of the shrine literally in and amongst the hustle and bustle of the city really interesting, it’s nice to know that you can get away for some peaceful moments when you need them. The cat cafe was brilliant, I have two cats and their personalities are complete polar opposites 😂 we call their dry food biscuits here in England/UK, not sure about other countries though. Thank you for sharing this with us and looking forward to seeing where you’ll take us next. Best wishes to you

He studied at the University of California (Berkeley). At a small ramen restaurant in Kochi, the waitress was an exchange student at Union City High School. Both spoke English with a California accent. It was just like home!

    Hi, seerasan. Great video. I have watched a few and found them really helpful. I subscribed to your channel as I love to learn more about Tokyo and Japan.
    I was in Shinjuku for 6 days in early July. I attended a Band-Maid okyuji at Zepp Shinjuku inside Kabukicho Tower, best rock concert of my life. Nice to relive my time in Shinjuku by watching this video. I had dinner at one of the restaurants in Kabukicho Tower. The restaurants are really close together at the 2nd floor. You are correct that the pricing is a bit higher, but quality of food was great and prices was not that bad. I found a small resturant in APA Hotel Kabukicho across the street where a lot of local people had lunch and dinner. It's called Common Cafe, the food was really cheap and very good, but the meny was a bit limited. I used the Common Cafe a lot because of the low price, and the fact it wasn't crowded at all.
    I can't wait to go back there in November this year 🙂

    I'm planning my first trip to Japan which is how I stumbled on your channel. You're the first one to point out areas that are dangerous for solo female travels which I really appreciate. It seems like the night life is a big part of touring tokyo but as a woman some of the places just seemed sketchy to me.

    • @seerasan
      @seerasan  Рік тому +1

      Kabukicho/Shinjuku is a little on the sketchier side of town, so as a female solo traveller and first time in Tokyo definitely one to be wary of! There are also a few scams in this area, so best to stay alert. Enjoy your solo trip! 💛
