who would have thought that for an hour of train ride you'll get to reach a castle town that still has the look and vibe of old tokyo?

that's kawagoe for you! watch us explore kawagoe and its nostalgic atmosphere, some good coffee, and charming streets.

table spreads during our trip to kuramae and kiyosumi-shirakawa 🀀

wanted an off-the-beaten path spots for our tokyo trip and found these quiet neighborhoods with so many good finds for food, coffee, and other knick-knacks.

it was also our first time to trying fukagawa-meshi, a local dish from kiyosumi-shirakawa oozing with clams!! worth a try!

can't help but share this as i think it deserves an immediate spot on our feed!!

the views were breathtaking~

the hike from taisho pond to kappa bridge which is 3.5 km, even took us 2 hours bc we had to stop, take some shots, and admire the view!!

we were also lucky to see the japanese alps. the skies were clear, and the wind was a bit chilly~ πŸ₯Ά perfect day for a hike! (naks! πŸ˜…)

kamikochi vlog soon....

head on to our instagram account for updates @atimelongpast

some old and new faves in taipei~

of course on top of that list is coffee. we were glad to discover some new cafes worth traveling for and so happy to be back to what we refer to as our "non-negotiable" of this trip 🀭

this was also our first time to see chiang kai shek memorial hall shrouded (tho barely hehe) with cherry blossoms 🌸 same spot but different vibe 🫢🏼

last week, we saw some songkran posts that instantly made us miss chiang mai~

it's so different from bangkok, more tranquil and laid-back yet it has its own energy through vibrant farmers' and artists' markets

counting down until our next trip to chiang mai! for now, we’ll be daydreaming about cozy cafe afternoons, crispy rotis, flavorful seafood krapao, and night markets just outside the old town

took a quick beach trip since we haven't had one in a year or two! it was a nice, relaxing break from work, city life, and all the rush. 🏝️

we were super excited to check out some new spots in urbiztondo, along with a few old favorites. but the best part of the trip was discovering small businesses. buying from local shops is such a personal thing for both the owner and the customer. you can easily tell that they put their heart into everything, making the whole experience way more special. those little chats and moments with the owners would def stick with us and remain a remarkable experience.

a time long past

when we planned our taiwan trip 3 years ago, we considered staying in taichung for a night or two. since it was our first time in the country, we'd settled on taipei instead.

after 2 trips to taiwan, we finally reached taichung!

the first 2 days were full of flea/pop-up markets and street food, but during our last day, some shops on our list were closed as it was the eve of lunar new year πŸ˜…

check out the shops and places we went to in our vlog!
