Exploring Harajuku in Tokyo

(download)

We explored Harajuku - a very colorful neigborhood in Tokyo on Day 2. This neighborhood features locals dressed in outlandish outfits most times as thier favorite manga characters. Takeshita Dori - a famous street in this neighborhood showcases Tokyo street fashion (check out the polka dotted moustache pants in the pics). In this neighborhood, we also came across young girls giving free hugs to keep people happy right outside Yoyogi Park. 

Oh Lovely Japan!

Japan - "The Land of the Rising Sun" is a unique nation. Nishant and I got back from a 8 day trip to Japan and it was by far one of the most memorable trips (more on this later). Our 8 day itinerary was as follows:

Day 1,2,3 - Tokyo

Day 4,5 - Takayama

Day 6,7 - Kyoto

Day 8 - Tokyo

Posted above are some pics from the trip (more coming soon - really)!
