My daily life in Tokyo.
Always interesting, even after 15 years.
Futakotamagawa is home to a nice mall, featuring what must be the nicest combination of book store / starbucks / cool electronics shops there is ! Futakotamagawa is also known as Nikotama, from an alternate reading of the first three kanji characters in the name.
Starbucks is very popular among Japanese salary men and college kids: free internet and (and above all) fresh air in summer.
Cloudy Tokyo from my favourite observation platform in Bunkyo-ku.
An ubiquitous sight in Tokyo nowadays: boys and girls, men and women hunting Pokemons.
Tokyo is always so hot in the summer… I don’t know anyone who likes it.
Free wireless, free aircon, good coffee: most coffee shops are very crowded with students, tourists and salary men (the quality of the coffee seems to matter little for the last kind of customer mentioned above).
The Yukata season is back – yeah !
In Yodobashi Camera Akihabara, deep underground: a bicycle parking. Fixed price of ¥400 – no wonder it’s always empty.
Surprisingly old parking entrance right next to JR station in Shinjuku.
I know, yet another one, but can’t help it: some more platform motion blur.
Decent restaurant at LaQua: the Noodle Bar.
