Tokyo
I first realized how much Japanese people are interested in fishing when I saw the amount of fishing video games produced in Japan. Many of my coworkers go fishing on weekends, some of them head to the seashore by car, however most of them go to Yotsuya pool, where fish are bred so that customers [...]
At Ikusuki’s blog I find these fabulous images of a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, something similar to the works of Motoda Hisaharu but in color. Just behind Tocho. In Shibuya next to the home appliances store Sakuraya. The ironic thing is that some months ago Bic Camera bought Sakuraya and one of the consequences is that they [...]
I share with you some photos that I took during a typical week of work routine in Tokyo but that I tried to enjoy to the fullest. I hope you have a nice week! Chilling around Shibuya. Antonio beat us playing darts at the Club Sega for adults iPads are everywhere in Tokyo. Up until [...]

At the entrance, every Sunday you can find the rockabillies, in the central part you can find all kinds [...]
