ABOUT CHEESIE
Still blogging after 16 years
I LOVE JAPAN
Why do I love Japan so much?
47 PREFECTURES
How much do you know Japan?
Many have asked me what I do with @cheesiepetits during my free time. Ideally I would love to bring them travel as much as possible to see the world and gain different experience, but since Junya started his new school now we are mostly limited to home activities and a walk at the park nearby.
Thanks for reading my previous blog post on
Today I’d like to introduce the second JR West Rail Pass:
You know what? Nevermind.
The kids are fine. They are happy. Tearing down the house as usual. Building spaceship stations and airports with sofa cushions and Champon in our bedroom. Stealing all the CNY snacks without asking me. Switching on Anpanman to watch by themselves (they know the remote control better than me now, Junya even taught me how to fastforward the programs). They also have not been sick (touch wood) since the change of new school for Junya.
They are happy and fine.
So, this month, this monthlyversary blog post, is about ME.
I hope you have a better idea on JR West Rail Passes after reading my previous blog post. ^^
So now, sample itinerary time!
The first pass I’ll be introducing is Sanyo-San’in Area Pass. This pass is valid for 7 days, here’s a sample itinerary that brings you across 6 prefectures in 7D7N (or 7D6N) with minimum change of hotels so that you won’t have to haul your luggage everywhere with you! You will be staying 2 nights in Hiroshima, 3 nights in Okayama and 1 or 2 night(s) in Osaka. ^^
I’m so excited for this post! It was written the very next morning after I came back from my 7-day #CheesieConquersWestJapan trip.
Before I even start the post, I want to thank JR West for giving me this wonderful opportunity to travel through 10 different prefectures in 7 days, conquering 3 new prefectures, meeting many amazing people (and a couple of miracle encounters along the way), laughing a lot, and most importantly, feeling the love of Japan, more than ever.
This is the second blog post of Tokyo Sightseeing Taxi. I have blogged about a full blog post earlier about the super advantages of opting for a chartered taxi tour in Tokyo.
You can read the blog post HERE.
On my second last day of Tokyo trip this December, I have gone on yet another half-day mini tour in Tokyo with Tokyo Sightseeing taxi again, and this time I went for a modified version of Model Course 6: Japan Culture, Art and Artisanship. You can view all the model courses on this website!
Tokyo is such an iconic, fascinating city that I think many people in this world would love to visit at least once in their life time.
My previous posts on Okayama:
It’s 2019! Here’s a little recount of events of my journey with Cheesiepetit of the entire year of 2018. I spent one whole day scrolling through the photos feeling all nostalgic. They have grown so much in just one year! (Take note of Junya and Sakura’s hair hahaha.) Also, can you believe it? I have over 50,000 photos and videos stored in my phone!!
My previous posts on Okayama:
In my previous post, you already read that Kojima of Kurashiki City in Okayama Prefecture is the birth place of Japan-made jeans.
Today’s post is about this unique street dedicated to all denim lovers, and it is called Kojima Jeans Street – where the first pair of domestically-produced jeans was born.
The theme for the second half of 2018 and continuing into 2019 for me, is “Love Myself”.
You can’t pour from an empty cup. I know it’s true. There were some really dark moments earlier this year that rendered me incapable of feeling any sort of joy. I felt unloved from the world and I wasn’t capable of giving any either. I knew I couldn’t let it consume my whole soul, and slowly I tried to climb my way out of it.
