Published on by Polly AmoraLeave a comment

I’ve been to Japan thrice and one of the things that I truly enjoy is going to their convinience stores and I tell you there are a gazillion of this out there! Just walk around the area a little bit and you’ll stumble upon a “konbini,” sooner rather than later. There’s plenty of variety & well-stocked Shelves. You’ll find almost everything you need from food, to beauty products and (even R-rated) magazines. But to keep this post in-line, I’ll only be talking about these top 3 yummies that I found. And I swear, if hording was illegal… I’m guilty as charged.

I wanted to do something special for the Man of My Dreams for our anniversary but thought I’d get him something that money can’t buy. One day, I’ve stumbled upon a page and saw all the beautiful pictures that the OP has collected. For me, traveling is not only a way to get away—it’s a way to learn and experience life through different cultures and pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone. Sadly, he doesn’t travel much.
