Little sign of life here.

Sun halo over Saint Malo, France. Taken roughly two weeks ago.

Imagine it's March of 2006 and you're visiting Kyotos Kiyomizu-dera and it's surrounding area....

Stumbled over some very old pictures, from my year in Japan. I guess I should count myself lucky, that I had a chance to see Kyoto before the big tourism wave.

And as I am in my way to Narita, have some early Christmas greetings... after all it's November 1st. So Japan switched from Halloween to Christmas overnight.

Will definetely take a look. I went to Koya-san in 2006 - so ages ago πŸ™ˆ Really hope to make it back during one of my next travels to Japan.

Special picture for @blunicorn.bsky.social .

I think the sun wants to give me another good sunburn during my last hours here >,<

Current Moods: I don't want to go back home just yet and my vacation to end.
I'm looking forward to being back home.
I do not want to pack my suitcases tonight. I *really* do not look forward to the ~16hrs flight back.

I do look forward to sleep in my own bed and just do nothing for a few days.

Went back to Ueno Park - another great part of Tokyo to just get a bit of calm and rest.

Taking most pictures with my DSLR, so I'll post more once I'm back home.

Every morning here in Japan: I want to order coffee for breakfast in Japanese....

But I need coffee to speak somewhat decent Japanese.
So my simple order ends in a huge confusion. OTL

(I should just get over myself and order my breakfast in English)

Took a stroll through Azabujuban today - probably the nicest and calmest area of Tokyo I've been to so far πŸ’–πŸ—ΌπŸ’–

Also one of the most expensive πŸ˜‚
Maybe I'll try to come back and take some views of the Tokyo Tower at night or dusk.

When eating at a danish bakery in Japan, I need to buy a Spandauer of course.

Leaving Kumamoto for Tokyo today, so have a slightly haunting version of Kumamon πŸ™ˆ

*Amanoiwato - damn you autocorrect :<
October 23, 2023 at 10:53 AM
Went to Amanoiware Shrine and Takachiho Gorge today. Took even more pictures of interesting greenery and rock formations πŸ™ˆ
So I guess that is what this account will feature, once I've edited all the pictures.

Bonus pictures of Usopp (Aso Station) and Franky (Takamori Station) πŸ’–
Not sure if I'll be able to go to the Statue in Kumamoto. It's a bit away from our hotel :(
October 22, 2023 at 7:50 AM
Finally went to Aso Nakadake today be prepared for plenty of pictures of rocks and gras fields during golden hour 😁
October 22, 2023 at 7:47 AM
Today didn't start as planned (always reserve seats on trains here, guys). But our little spontaneous excursion to Minami Aso had the best train ride possible πŸ’–

Met my Nemesis, the cake thieves, again.

Everything went fine this time and all the Miyajima deer behaved. No cakes were stolen.

Other than that: The first days in Kyōto have been busy and way too short. On our way to KyΕ«shΕ« now, where our stay will hopefully be more relaxed πŸ™ˆ

Japan Mobile Web is working on my phone \*A*/

Other than that, we arrived. Landing in Narita was a bit rough.
Spent the while afternoon with "arriving" in Japan (JR Pass, immigration etc.) and now t's almost 11 p.m. and I'm just dead tired

~ 15hrs until Tokyo πŸ’–

Such a fantastic composition πŸ’•
October 6, 2023 at 9:12 PM
Okay, Google hat schon geholfen. ADAC oder eine Stelle in Japan.

Klingt leichter als einen Amtstermin in Berlin zu bekommen 🀣
October 1, 2023 at 8:10 PM
Ah okay... die bekomme ich dann beim Konsulat?
October 1, 2023 at 8:05 PM
I think for my next travel to Japan I'll definetely have to get an international driving license and learn to drive a car on the left side.

So many great places to visit - but off the big tourist spots, they are barely reachable via train or bus.

Views of Florence, Italy 2017.

Tuscany.

Volterra, San Gimignano and Vinci (I think) πŸ’–

Have I mentioned lately how much I love that place?
