A Day in Rome

The historic city with its past buildings on the left and right of the street is tempting



After a strict airport check, and very disciplined at times, you can head to town by bus or train. It was quite stressful, as well as fun as a travel experience in an orderly and clean atmosphere.


You can walk every lengthy city sidewalks, recognize this city in different ways. Seeing a group of townspeople passing by, Rome is closer to walking through the ancient, artistic buildings. Understand the citizens of the city with all the activities, their daily busyness.


Something waiting to talk about Italy, do not ever miss their culinary, maybe a lot you know, but here it is all different, cappuccino, or pizza, pasta, fettucini and others, maybe even food from the middle east region.

Snow Festival in Sapporo

A unique winter holiday in Japan since 1950



Regardless of the biting air to your body in the first week of February, the 1.5-hour long journey flies from Haneda to this gorgeous city, as you take a stroll to Odori Park, Susukino and Tsudome to instantly feel the ice-festival atmosphere wherever you go, and ice sculptures.


But you can witness firsthand the various sculptures of snow and ice from snow sculptures from different countries. You should be able to feel the moment of excitement, especially at night that gives a certain light effect.


I am in the midst of thousands of visitors, from a variety of ice sculptures, and a lively area with the cries of children's voices in the middle of the arena.

A Day Walk in Shibuya

The Omotesando, Harajuku and Shibuya areas are a trend among young people



You feel young again when you are in this area, although I also look for places with different shades, maybe Meiji Jingu Temple, Yoyogi Garden or see the lanterns displayed around the place.


This area makes you feel so spoiled, you can find various places to eat, resto, cafe, art mural along the corridor wall connecting Yamanote train line and Inokashira line, and all the needs of fashion trend for young people, and there you see something special.


In addition to fashion, you also never miss a place to eat on "Cat Street", cafe lined up offering a variety of tempting menu, a hangout for tourists and young people from the city of Tokyo.

Gouda to the south

One of the oldest cities in the Netherlands



They say the area was originally in the 11th and 12th centuries is a swamp forest surrounded by small rivers, Gouwe. Regardless now the city is filled with historic buildings, even an interesting church, De Sint-Janskerk.


I enjoy the sunset as one of the moments I always wait in this place. They, the people around me immediately took the camera gear and started while shooting the fun.


I like this town, a city famous for its cheesecake crafts and the typical name, "Goudse kaas" cheese comes from this place.
