Author: Bryan Chan

An unrelenting love for travel and a curiosity for meeting new people means that when Bryan's not on the road somewhere in the world, he's usually planning a way to get on the road again. Otherwise and in between episodes where he is scheming to take over the world, he enjoys music and photography and arts and sports and people and food and all them flavors greatly. Often spotted at a cafe with book in hand and waffle in mouth, feel free to join him as a friendly chat is always appreciated - but only after he's eaten. This specimen can be dangerous when hungry.
Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, Kamakura’s most important shrine, is a popular wedding locale among couples.

A Hostel Experience at an Osakan Guesthouse

Recounting my wonderful hostel experience at a guesthouse in Osaka. You get to meet people from other countries and experience Japanese culture in an informal setting.

How Not to Get to Your Hostel in One Piece

Once aboard the Shinkansen, quick as the wind, carrying me towards Osaka, I spent five minutes mentally preparing myself for the scene at arrival, and then a good part of two hours on the excellent iPhone game, Sushi Ninja.
