[fallen crypt]

loads of people sick in the fall, in general

[solar tiger]

Anyone in Golden Gai? Will be heading there in an hour

[wanton heart]

just plain old covid

[fallen crypt]

that too, but even without it, colds and the flu run rampant

I got sick a week before my trip and I'm hoping that's my immunity done lmao

[wanton heart]

wear a mask, dont go around killing the aging population

plus you look prettier with a mask

...said to me every girl ever

[fallen crypt]

it's unfortunately true, for people we've never seen, we autofill their missing face parts at a 10/10

loads of people got uglier when mask mandates ended xD

but tbh a mask couldn't save me since I got sick from exposure at a restaurant

[wanton heart]

just eat through a straw

[slim steppe]

its almost like the weather is changing

[fallen crypt]

yum, blended pizza

[quasi wing]

[queen dock]

It’s 6th floor big yellow and red sign

[quasi wing]

1 min away

[cobalt torrent]

Nice! I hadn't heard of them but they're from the next town over from my hometown. Hopefully I can catch them back in Canada at some point

[languid sinew]

Yeah. I'd say their EQ was messed up live but idk what it normally is. I'd have to hear the studio mix to say.

It's like psychedelic mixed with shoegaze or something

Ok, just finished up some laundry. Going to maybe walk alongside Sumida river for a bit while it is dry, then find a place to take a break somewhere. Welcome to join.

[brittle gulch]

I'm also in the area, and I'm up for lunch

[tulip pine]

I am hungry … and I was also thinking about going to Sumida for the Hokusai.

@momo.moe @glass mantle @brittle gulch Shall we meet for lunch?

[glass mantle]

Mmm… I’m not quite ready for lunch yet but you guys can definitely do that and maybe I’ll meet up later for something

Yep!

[karmic night]

[tiny beacon]

For the friends I met last night, that was hella fun, thanks for the great evening

Would anyone be able to show me how to play pachinko sometime?

[tulip pine]

Any idea of place for lunch @brittle gulch @karmic night ?

[quasi egret]

Long shot but anyone in Hakone tomorrow? I’m going solo for some sightseeing and some chill time.

[karmic night]

Hmm

Walking down along nakamisedori

[brittle gulch]

[tulip pine]

Heading there

[brittle gulch]

[karmic night]

[tulip pine]

There is only one family waiting

[karmic night]

I'm right in front of the shop selling tax free cosmetics

[viscid bay]

Any plans for tonight Tokyo peeps?

[tulip pine]

It’s around the corner

[brittle gulch]

Coming

[livid zephyr]

No plans for me and crew - but open to whatever !

[tepid oyster]

Could be down to to grab a drink or two. I landed yesterday so probably wait till weekend to go all out but keen to do something tonight

[viscid bay]

I leave this Sunday 😭

[fallen crypt]

is anyone in Nikko? it looks like it's pants weather up there

[viscid bay]

Ooooo Nikko was ❤️

[fallen crypt]

(heading straight there from the airport tomorrow and I wanna bring only my 2 days of stuff with me not my whole suitcase, which means I gotta plan ahead)

[viscid bay]

It's gonna be cold

[fallen crypt]

gotcha, bringing the long pants and the warm stuff 👍

[viscid bay]

Sept 23-25 the temperature near the waterfall up was 1 degree Celsius around 6 PM

[fallen crypt]

I'm so ready to shop in Tokyo

[fallen crypt]

oh wtf

[viscid bay]

Check out the Uniqlo near the Shinjuku square
Good warm clothes collection

[tepid oyster]

Get some heat tech to keep u crispy

[fallen crypt]

no time before Nikko but I have heat tech and a packable puffer in my bag

[brittle gulch]

I'm thinking of heading to Yokohama in the evening to check out chinatown

[viscid bay]

Yaaa
It was so damn cold all of a sudden
Also check out Yumoto Onsen
And the world heritage pass doesn't cover the shrines and the train ride back
Only the bus is covered
In case you're planning to get that

[fallen crypt]

no it sounds like it covers the round trip? just not the express ticket on top of that

[viscid bay]

Ah okay
Btw all shops close by 6-7 PM
Only one restaurant and an Izakaya is open

[fallen crypt]

no time for the onsen probably, but I'll have onsen visits later (arima, kurokawa, and gero)

[viscid bay]

Well it didn't

We tried

[viscid bay]

Okay

[fallen crypt]

I'll check, thanks for the heads up

and will pick up a bento!

❤️

[viscid bay]

Yes

Spacia X was nice

But it gets sold out soon

And souvenir shopping is cheap and nice there
Esp if you like ceramic and all

[fallen crypt]

yeah I'm not able to prebook since I don't know how long exiting the airport will take me

so I'll take whatever I can get haha

[viscid bay]

Yes go and book
Just have some extra time that's all

[fallen crypt]

as long as I make it there before night, I'm good ;)

my plane lands around 2:30 so I should be good

[cursive ermine]

Tomorrow I am going to this absolutely ridiculous crazy party
https://www.ddinstagram.com/p/C_5BK9qSXD1/

The band is selling their new EP inside tin cans

[wanton heart]

That is the only way I like to consume music

Do you know a good co-working/laptop space in shimo before the show ?

Tsutaya I guess

[tiny beacon]

Keen for anything anyone has planned

[fading laurel]

I swear if I had a 500 yen coin for every time I missed Wang Dang Doodle, I could buy a ticket by now...

ONE DAY I will see them

[fading laurel]

I think MILET tickets are still on sale for today and tmw

if people are interested in going

[hearty tulip]

I'm there right now, was raining today but it stops tomorrow

Pants + thin insulated jacket weather

[tiny beacon]

Anyone keen for some arcade and food hopping tonight? Maybe Shibuya?

[rocky sun]

Anyone in Hiroshima?

[obsidian crown]

Currently halfway done the shimanami kaido

[obsidian crown]

What date, where, and how much?

[rocky sun]

Great. I am doing it day after tomorrow. Tomorrow Miyajima and Saturday Hiroshima

[fading laurel]

Today and tmw in Tokyo

I think face value of like 8000 yen

[obsidian crown]

Ahhh I’d go but won’t be in Tokyo until the 15th

[obsidian crown]

I did both of them yesterday, Miyajima was really great

[rocky sun]

Great. Looking forward!

[fallen crypt]

thanks 👍

[weary prawn]

Damn it’s chilly in Tokyo

[tiny beacon]

Got some new clothes from Uniqlo specifically for this

The jackets are cheap and nice for this weather

[karmic night]

Same 😂 purposely went to uniqlo for a jacket too

And it's 20-30% compared to home country's price

[fallen crypt]

can't believe I packed like it was gonna be hot and now it's cold lol

how unfortunate that I have to shop 😌

[weary prawn]

i shipped my luggage to tokyo, and packed my sweather thinking it'd still be warm lol

[gleaming bobcat]

[spare tiger]

I'm up for drinking in Shibuya Friday night

[craggy flume]

Hey guys, names Diego, I'm planning on visiting Tokyo this coming Monday for 10 days and would to find some people to show me around or just explore together!

I'll be staying at the Hotel New Otani so if you have any suggestions as to cool things to do in that area I would appreciate those as well.

ty!

[crisp river]

Hey guys how does meeting up work? Like does someone just drop a location or come up with a plan here and everyone is welcome to drop in or is it more complicated than that? Lol

[dusk grove]

usually let them know you're joining in/ask if there is room

but yeah

if you're organizing, organize as you like

[crisp river]

Makes sense, is there usually room? Lol

[dusk grove]

@solemn violet iirc asked to hang at some place with me, so some people also do 1 on 1 or group meetups

[dusk grove]

often enough

[crisp river]

Nice! Yeah im honestly gonna be down for whatever so I'll stay open to whatever people r doing when i arrive

[dusk grove]

the more active you are in the disc/in talking to people or the more interesting you are the more people might invite you too

[crisp river]

Most people here are in tokyo im guessing?

[dusk grove]

there is a spreadsheet

[solemn violet]

https://tenor.com/view/gotoubun-no-hanayome-shocked-anime-gif-15542883

theme of meetups

[dusk grove]

LMAO

[crisp river]

Hell yeah lol

[dusk grove]

it's pinned

[crisp river]

Oh damn

[solemn violet]

nice pfp, is that your car? do you track?

[crisp river]

Used to be and used to do lol

[solemn violet]

wooo ... awww

[crisp river]

Sold it to be "an adult" whatever that means

[solemn violet]

i have a grey track edition... but i track miatas....

[dusk grove]

@solemn violet you're the only person on the sheet you answered in full caps to drinking alchohol LMAO

[crisp river]

Nice. And yeah i track my subie now and sorta enjoy that more. Lot cheaper on tires for one... lol

[solemn violet]

I AM DEFINITELY YELLING ...

[dusk grove]

[solemn violet]

15" tires for me.... definitely cheaper, and i cry less if i fk up

but i havent gone in forever so... :X

[crisp river]

Man id love to get a miata someday, but here in canada i would not be able to drive it much lol

[solemn violet]

you should!!! fun full sized go kart

[dusk grove]

A friend of mine got a miata.... and promptly fucked it

[crisp river]

As he should haha

[dusk grove]

he's slowly fixing it himself

[solemn violet]

at least there are plenty of parts n theyre not that pricy

[crisp river]

How do i interact with the spreadsheet btw? Like if there's something i'd like to show im interested in

[dusk grove]

you don't

LOL

[crisp river]

Oof lol

[solemn violet]

you could either msg ppl, or @ them here maybe O:

[crisp river]

Ahh gotchu

[crisp river]

Do you know the best way to see Daikoku btw? Tours i've seen online are like $200 or more for the evening 💀

[solemn violet]

lol...

rent a car

the younger irresponsible me have done it the "dont do it" way...

and have somehow magically found ways to get back.. but yeah not advised.

[crisp river]

Hm so basically do it the least responsible way for maximum experience or be responsible and spend the money for a less than "magical" time lol

Id rent a car but tbh it'd be really strange driving opposite to what im used to

[craggy flume]

Wait how did people get their names on the sheet if you cant interact with it?

also hi

[crisp river]

I just put mine up

[dusk grove]

I meant you just put your stuff up and that's about it

use discord for actual communication

[crisp river]

Yeah like i was asking if i can just use it to dm people directly

[craggy flume]

Where? in here?

[dusk grove]

... the spreadsheet

[craggy flume]

lol ok I must have misunderstood

[solemn violet]

your discord doesnt allow msgs from not friends

[crisp river]

Oh that might be important for meeting people 🤣

one sec

[craggy flume]

_<

[crisp river]

is it working now? lol

[empty geode]

Where’s the spreadsheet? Totally missed that lol

[crisp river]

It's in the pinned messages!

Just put mine up too

[cursive ermine]

https://www.reddit.com/r/JapanTravel/comments/1e2u25w/a_music_lovers_guide_to_tokyo_nightclubs/

[stiff oracle]

Hey all! Just found this discord. 30M from Canada fighting off jet lag in Tokyo. Pretty much down for whatever this week if anyone is looking for company!

[night rain]

Spreadsheet for time in japan and meetups

[agile jungle]

I am in Yokohama near Daikoku. The last time I went, it was cool, but also a bit of a let down for me personally

there were more non locals there than locals

although being a non local myself, I obviously was just adding to that statistic lol

[crisp river]

Was the car turnout a let down too? Or just the lack of locals?

[agile jungle]

Car turn out was good. However, I am from LA, so I am a bit spoiled as far as car meets/scene goes

So for me, it was kind of like a regular car meet, except there were more skylines and the cars were RHD

[faint star]

I'm currently staying in that area. Unfortunately I'm not much of a drinker though.

[crisp river]

Haha fair enough, coming from canada it would be impressive to see

[agile jungle]

Yea. If you're used to seeing one modified car a week or one ferrari a month, then it'll be cool for sure, haha. I am used to seeing modified cars at every other light on my daily commute to work

but regardless, I am sure it is cool to most people in general either way

[crisp river]

Yup sounds about right. Living in alberta you'll see trucks worth as much as ferraris but thats it 🤣

[karmic night]

Anyone in ueno today?

[faint star]

I'm staying in Ueno/Akihabara, but I'm probably headed to Asakusa today

[jaunty axle]

also heading to Asakusa today haha

[faint star]

Want to brave the tourist crowds at Senso-ji?

[jaunty axle]

hoping to get the goshuin 🙏

[karmic night]

I'm gonna just spend half a day in the museums

Just walked the park, it's breezy and nice

[glass mantle]

I timed this trip horribly to just miss these particularly fun looking gigs 😭 hopefully some fun shows when I’m back next week

[faint star]

I went to the national museum yesterday!

Anyone interested in heading to karaoke this afternoon? Or getting our travel wallets drained at a maid cafe?

[stiff oracle]

Im also doing some museums in Ueno today. Weather in the park is beautiful!

[karmic night]

Ooo
Wanna join parties? (I have a party of one lol)

[stiff oracle]

Sure! I’m doing National Museum first if that works

I’m just chilling near the area just send me a message

[karmic night]

Ohh sure! I'm right in front of the whale at the other museum, I'll make it over to TNM then

[stiff oracle]

Cool I’m just near the pond on the other side of the intersection

[karmic night]

Dropped you a msg

[livid zephyr]

Anyone hitting akihabara today?

[faint star]

Afternoon!

[quasi egret]

Anyone interested in joyopolis after Sunday ?

[sharp tide]

Im in osaka until the 13th if anyone wants to grab drinks/dinner or sightsee!

[rocky sun]

In Tokyo too on the same dates! Would like to join the clubbing part.

[languid sinew]

I'm going to Ikebukuro this morning once my clothes are done drying but I'd be down for either or both

I may go to the show at Three depending on how tired I am

[cursive ermine]

Three has a sofa

[solemn patrol]

Now you have to go ^

[languid sinew]

💀

The show at Nine Spices I almost fell asleep during the third band

eep

[empty geode]

What genre is the show?

[languid sinew]

Rock

Or the one tonight idk

[empty geode]

Yea tonight

[fading laurel]

Shimo 3 has a few stools + a comfy couch.

I have made friends with those stools for many a show

[empty geode]

It’s been two days and my shoes still aren’t dry lol

[languid sinew]

[empty geode]

There’s a tea garden behind the museum. We really loved it

[tiny beacon]

The genre is yes.

The genre is ‘ridiculously fun, you should come’

[languid sinew]

I'm headed to Ikebukuro rn to wander around if anyone else will be there we can get lunch or whatever

[slim steppe]

Okay let's hit the popular spots first

[empty geode]

We’re going to explore Takeshita st around noon today

[faint star]

Anyone up for anison karaoke in Akihabara this afternoon?

[onyx sail]

Anyone else planning to dress up for Halloween on Saturday, Oct 26 and party? Thinking of going to the Tokyo Decadance Halloween event (in Kabukicho) which looked fun last year. Might make a group event for this if anyone else is interested to go. It's 3 floors of club/bar and everyone is encouraged to dress up for the event. There was an insanely long line out the door for it last year and I was bummed that I couldn't go. Here's some images of what's in store for this event this year. If anyone went last year, can you share how it was? Tickets are apparently being sold now for it.

[rocky sun]

Anyone in Miyajima today?

[crisp river]

That looks fun as hell. Where can you get tickets?

[faint star]

@empty geode @solemn violet

So would meeting up in Akiba at around 2pm be good?

[crisp river]

Nvm , i should read lol

[onyx sail]

Lol no worries, they have a whole website for it. It was even on Tokyo cheapo https://tokyocheapo.com/events/tokyo-decadance-halloween/ which is how I found out it was going on again

[cursive ermine]

Events are better shared in #october so they don’t get swept away in daily meetup planning

[crisp river]

For me that says No Access, is it because im new to the server still?

[onyx sail]

Oh sorry!

[cursive ermine]

No it’s because you didn’t pick a month role id:customize

[crisp river]

There we go , thanks!

[crisp river]

Anyway if you did create a group event I would for sure join. Gonna be in tokyo just in time and love the halloween season vibes

[sharp tide]

Also in tokyo from the 13-18! Lmk if you wanna get a group going for dinner/drinks, etc

[empty geode]

Ah we just scored sky tree tickets this afternoon. Have fun though 🪩😎🎤

[jaunty axle]

[empty geode]

Yea my wife got them. Must of been a cancelation?

[jaunty axle]

lucky you, I couldnt get them

[fallen crypt]

"current weather in Tokyo is cloudy and rainy" well ew

[royal hull]

It's not that bad and remember, Tokyo is huge. It may be raining in one area, but the others will not have the same condition. YMMV

[queen dock]

Looks good! I made a Halloween meet up thread for general events if you’d like to join it too https://discord.com/channels/440956791426383882/1278308926684790875

[crisp river]

Just joined that thread. Really excited about that Halloween event @onyx sail posted earlier!

[livid zephyr]

[languid sinew]

Amazing. I'm wearing a blue shirt and standing directly next to the Chigusa Minori event poster at the front door.

[brittle gulch]

Folks in Tokyo till Saturday, could you check with your hotel if they can accept parcels with cash on delivery? I accidentally left some clothes in Kyoto and my hostel does not accept cash on delivery unfortunately. I can give you the money and pick it up from you. Thank you!

I can’t believe I have been here 2 months and have not met you @fading laurel

[fading laurel]

[tepid oyster]

https://maps.app.goo.gl/XTX1kru8WJ9RhGNA6?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

[fading laurel]

[tepid oyster]

We hoped in here

I’ve only been in Tokyo the last week for this month

Last month I was here for a few weeks

[jaunty axle]

i’ll be there in 40mins

[solar bobcat]

Be there in 15

[fading laurel]

It’s probably because I don’t do the meetups?

[fallen crypt]

I'm in an onsen in Nikko first night in Japan successful 😌

(a private one lol don't worry I don't have my phone in a public one)

[solar bobcat]

Maybe but I also think you underestimate the positive impact you have on this group chat

[robust vale]

Anyone out in shibuya wanna grab a drink?

[jaunty axle]

15 from now

[solar bobcat]

I’m here but the google maps does not help to many places to close together

[tepid oyster]

We can come out

[solar bobcat]

Alright

[robust vale]

Still at lads bar?

[grave aurora]

Nah we left to head to Shinjuku crew

Great bar tho

Fries are awesome

Im adhd spazz so one location is impossible i

[jaunty axle]

almost there

[spice shore]

You guys know if many places in Japan take card? Or mostly just cash?

[jaunty axle]

can somebody come out?

[feral cargo]

You in golden kai?

[jaunty axle]

i used this one

[feral cargo]

Not there but stay I'll head to u

I'm in green jacket glasses and face mask

[queen dock]

Omw to golden gai let me know what bar yall be in, be 20

[feral cargo]

It's called diamonds bar

[grave aurora]

These days most take card. You will not struggle to find places that are cash only though

[jaunty axle]

fast fast

[fading laurel]

Depends on where you are in Japan

in Tokyo, a lot of places do take credit card, but many many places still take only cash

Especially ramen joints

If you get outside of the major cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto

It jumps by an enormous amount. A lot of places are cash only

I always tell people to carry like 20-30,000 to be safe

[spice shore]

Okay thank you all. I will just carry spare cash in case 🙂

[feral cargo]

You good?

[jaunty axle]

for golden kai

[feral cargo]

You lost?

[fading laurel]

Yeah basically

Use your card wherever you're allowed to

and then use cash only as a final resort

Its mostly there so you don't have to walk into a restaurant and be like

"Aww its cash only" and then have to leave

20-30,000 yen is more than enough money to handle virtually any food situation that's cash only

[spice shore]

Thinking to use Revolut e card

@fading laurel Thanks man appreciate it 👍

[fading laurel]

np

Most of the time a cash only place, the meals are relatively cheap

and by cheap I mean like

[livid ocean]

People Thinking about going for a club tonight around GoldenGai?

[fading laurel]

under 2000 yen

Like this is a cash only meal and even with my addons, its like 1300 yen

Which is like $9 USD

Most cash only meals will be like that, usually fairly cheap

[grave aurora]

Cover charges a bitch ngl

[solemn patrol]

Tmo tmo tmo

[fading laurel]

With the exception of like 1 or 2 places, I can't recall anytime in Japan that I've paid for a meal that was over 10,000 yen that required cash (when that meal was for one person). The only place that immediately comes to mind is Sushi Inomata, which is like 30,000 yen and cash only.

[solemn patrol]

Habo spotted 🔥

[fading laurel]

but they are very upfront about that

[fading laurel]

Its worrying that I can recognize that place by just that damn pillar

[solemn patrol]

😹😹

[signal wasp]

Omw

[feral cargo]

Alright let me know when close

[fading laurel]

@cursive ermine What's your take on the singer Ano if you know anything about her?

[livid ocean]

Where is this diamond bar? Google maps is not helping

[signal wasp]

I'm in the golden gai.

Can't find it on Google though

[feral cargo]

I'll stand outside

[signal wasp]

I have a purple shirt

So I just walk around?

[wanton heart]

Best corporate thing to come out from the toy's factory

Very appealing for the cure generation for being against all traditions

[feral cargo]

I'm wearing glasses a green jacket brown hair and face mask

[signal wasp]

Alright

[livid ocean]

Can you send a screen shot of google maps with your pin?

[tiny beacon]

At the gig we just went to, they gave a shot of tequila to everyone in the venue

[feral cargo]

You good?

[livid ocean]

Closing my tab here. Be there in 10 i guess

[feral cargo]

K

[livid ocean]

Sorry got to pick up my buddy first. Might join the group later

[feral cargo]

All good

[cursive ermine]

Will never find this in Golden Gai

[buoyant magnet]

Where was this?

[jaunty axle]

[faint star]

UNRAVELING THE WORLD

Anybody wanna meet in Tokyo from 24th Oct to 1st Nov?

[dusk grove]

The ending portion of that yeah why

[spice shore]

Looking to meet with ppl. It's my first time travelling to Japan

Would love to meetup with others

[dusk grove]

Maybe

Lmao

[short nebula]

i'd be down! similar situation and landing on the 23rd

[crisp river]

Same here but landing on the 19th!

[short nebula]

great, i get jealous reading about all the karaoke and bar hopping gatherings, let's do one as well 🙂

[crisp river]

Same haha. Can’t wait to land in Japan and meet cool people 🥳

[agile jungle]

Btw, if you do try to make it out to daikaku, this was how it was last night on a Thursday night.

[crisp river]

Nice! Yeah I’m gonna try to make it out there if I can. Do you plan on going back again?

[agile jungle]

This wasn't even planned. I just happen to be close by and decided to check it out to see if there were any cars there on a random night like last night

[buoyant magnet]

Thank you. Followed that account. I’m landing in about 12 hours!

[crisp river]

Fair enough. Looks like it'll be worth the trip for me atleast lol

[viscid bay]

Yes it was a blast
Thank you so much
@faint star your singing is on a whole other level

[solar bobcat]

So much fun in shinjuku great night guys

[faint star]

And no one went to a host club

[solemn patrol]

I wanna hear it

[faint star]

I'll sing 女の子になりたい again

[solemn patrol]

I’ll be busy but take a video next time !

[fading laurel]

@cursive ermine I may have an issue

[fiery robin]

is there still a spot? and time? might be able to pop.in!!

[fallow reef]

do you know if it gets shut down early during evenings on the weekends?

[faint star]

はい

[fiery robin]

yay! what place and time?

on Saturday I'm going to yokohama and kamakura so.i can join late.

[faint star]

We're just getting a random big echo or karaoke-kan wherever.

Probably evening after dinner

[agile jungle]

I was there until 1030pm ish. I think it is all completely random. There may be no cars there. It may be packed. It may get shut down. It might not, etc. I think it depends on how busy it gets, in terms of it getting shut down or not. By 1030pm, it was already somewhat empty, as you can see from the pictures, so I doubt any cops would have bothered coming in to shut it down at that point.

[fiery robin]

yay

[faint star]

@fiery robin I'm actually planning on heading to yokohama this weekend. Do you have a spot for +1?

[fiery robin]

I'll be there on a day trip on Sat leaving from daimon stn! if you want to join then sure!! I have a itinerary!! it's kamakura and trails in the morning, Chinatown and mirai for the evening then heading back

solo.ttipping it

[burnt fox]

I’m currently in bed nursing a pocari sweat and trying to ignore the sun, but I just wanted to say the show at Shimokitazawa Three last night was a blast and such a special experience 🥹

Highly recommend checking out a show and supporting the local music scene!

On top of that, @cursive ermine is just the absolute raddest dude

[karmic night]

Up for karaoke too

[faint star]

Time to practice another difficult song then

Well, I'm going to Akihabara again to buy idol penlights (and maybe a maid outfit)

[heady glen]

Anyone doing anything crazy today?

[fiery robin]

define crazy

[faint star]

BL café in Ikebukuro?

[heady glen]

Or anything in general

[dusk grove]

My friend asked me to go to this for her

Almost did

[fiery robin]

[faint star]

So since I didn't go to maid cafe yesterday, does anyone want to go today?

[heady glen]

Haven’t met up with anyone from here yet but if anyone would like to do anything later tonight I’d be down! Staying in Asakusa but can meet up in other places in Tokyo.

[empty trail]

This group has me excited for my trip in a couple weeks. Hoping to meet up with some people while I'm there! It's a bit further out, but is anyone interested in planning a Kurama / Kubine hike somewhere between November 1-5? I'll be staying in Osaka starting October 31!

[fiery robin]

[jaunty axle]

[karmic night]

[fallen crypt]

I think someone wanted Nikko weather advice

[tepid oyster]

Were the buses crowded ?

[fallen crypt]

[tepid oyster]

Are you going to the lake area ?

[tepid oyster]

Oooh, I’m debating what to do on a 1 night trip there. How’s the colors is it changing yet?

[tepid oyster]

Ooh still no koyo. I’m surprised, or maybe it’s certain areas I’m not entirely sure

Beautiful tho
