When Mike and I were thinking of where to go for our honeymoon, we fantasized about a romantic getaway in places like Spain, Fiji, and even Norway (even though we knew that that would have to be placed in the “Someday” file, or else we would be starting our married life in debt!). All those …
Ueno Zoo
In my previous post about Ueno Park, I mentioned that within this expansive 133-acre park lies a great number of attractions and activities, including several museums, various temples and shrines, art galleries, theater halls, and a 35-acre zoo — the Ueno Zoo, which you will see more of in this blog post! Founded in 1882, the Ueno …
Autumn in Ueno Park
I couldn’t think of a better way to spend our last day in Tokyo than strolling around Ueno Park, one of the largest and most famous parks in the city and in Japan. Ueno Park is a spacious public park located in the Ueno district of Tokyo, which attracts more than 10 million visitors each …
Asakusa Part 2: Senso-ji Temple

Asakusa Part 1: Nakamise-Dori

The Robot Restaurant in Tokyo
It’s no secret – Japan is the land of all things weird and crazy. I mean, glow-in-the-dark toilet bowls that play music?! Tell me that’s not weird and crazy! But nothing is weirder, crazier, flashier, more outrageous, and more bizarre than a place in Shinjuku called Robot Restaurant, which is known for its extraordinary 1 …
Locked In Love with Lock and Lock’s Couple Tumblers
One of the best things about having a partner is having a default person to go on random adventures with. My fiancé Mike and I absolutely love going on adventures – big or small. In fact, when we post photos of us together on Instagram, we usually use the hashtag #PuffAndFluffAdventure. (Just in case you’re …
Tokyo Disney Sea (Part 2)
If you read Part 1 of my Tokyo Disney Sea blog post, you were probably blown away by the sheer spectacularity of this one-of-a-kind theme park. If you weren’t, you’ve got to be kidding me! Did you not see the photos of those amazing attractions?! The truth is, those photos are nothing compared to seeing …
Tokyo Disney Sea (Part 1)
While preparing our Tokyo travel itinerary, I wasn’t sure if I should include Tokyo Disney Sea. Mike, Eric, Paula, and I went to Hong Kong Disneyland just 8 months before going to Japan. Two Disneyland trips in just one year might be a bit redundant. Besides, Disneyland might just be a lot like Disney Sea, …
