A Quickie in Harajuku

A Quickie in Harajuku

For some reason, I'm trying to venture in a new career so I'm kind of going for interviews here and there. This one was not in Harajuku but I went after the interview anyways. Mind you! This is not even "because it's on the way" kind of situation. I have to transfer twice I believe? Dedication. 

The Harajuku Station

Ancient looking station that's also a touristy spot because tourists seem to like to take pictures here. Which is inconvenient sometimes but whatevs. 


I actually thought of going to Shinjuku but I guess my feet killed me that time so I was like NVM. I don't like it in Shinjuku anyways. But you know, I should try to wander again and maybe I'd have a different opinion. People change. Yeah?

Hot Cocoa 

Hot Cocoa on a hot afternoon. It doesn't makes sense. After wandering around, I decided it's time to eat. I stopped by a place called La Pausa. It's actually like Saizeriya in a sense. 

Good Ambiance 
Potato Fry
Tuna and Spinach

I guess it's safe to say that I like Saizeriya better. It gets me. I don't know. I actually went to Harajuku for Crepes but I got creeped out by some foreigners handing out flyers. If you've been to Harajuku, you'd know the "foreigners" all over Takeshita Street. Can't a woman walk peacefully? For goodness sake! Anyways, Ciao!

Taking Over Harajuku/Shibuya. 2.9.15

Taking Over Harajuku/Shibuya. 2.9.15








To be honest, this is like already one of the cutest stuff I've seen in Harajuku. I also didn't see much "gyaru". I've seen probably 6 of them. Sad. 












There are quite a lot of stores in this place and if you just want to spend your money buying stuff, you'll enjoy your time here for sure. 







First crepe store I've seen







Going to Takeshita street





It's actually quite near Harajuku Station so you'll never go amiss. 









Takeshita Street





Just this street alone will feed you cute stuff! And your stomach too. 










Takeshita street is actually kind of small but really full of cute finds. Like, shops after shops. Candy shops, dress shops, restaurants, like, not a single space wasted. And I like that they're all Indie-ish and cute. 







Crepes! 





Being totally bias, I bought my crepe at Marion Crepes. No idea which one to choose so I chose the one with the longest line. I think the one I got was called Banana Cheesecake or something. It was kind of cold that day so I didn't order the one with the ice cream version whichI bet would be awesome in summer.







Crepes display





Very curious what veggie crepe tastes like. Should I? Should I? 







Angels Heart Crepe







Santa Monica crepes 





I don't know what is it about Harajuku but there were lots of crepe shops. I'm not complaining. LOL. I think they have like at least 3 Santa Monica crepe store in the area so I'm looking forward to trying some from that shop. 










Harajuku is not only a place for cute stuff but oh my gosh also a place for high end stuff. Chanel, D&G, Dior, and a lot more side by side and I was like, okay, going the other way now. LOL. 







Harajuku Station







Selfie 





Not that these selfies have anything to do with Harajuku. Like, it's difficult traveling alone I feel like. Kind of hard taking pictures of yourself with the stuff that matters. My face matters. Hahaha










It's kind of a vintage looking station and I'm actually really into it. It's not as fancy as Tokyo Station though. I think. 







People crossing the street







Harajuku H&M and Forever 21







Lotteria





After a very long walk, I had this and went to Shibuya. At this point, my feet is really aching because of wrong decisions. Hahaha damn you heels! 







Touchdown Shibuya







Shibuya lights










If it weren't for my aching feet, I would have stayed longer in Shibuya. It's so pretty there!! Like, lights everywhere and stuff. 







Hachiko statue





I miss my dog Shiki. To my disappointment though, didn't take a selfie with it and it's underrated. Like not much people cared about it there, I feel. Lots took pictures though and boom, done.







Pretty!!! 





Will definitely be back!! It's so festive. Me likey.
