Osaka Week 2: Summary ♥

Hello lovelies, how are you doin'?

This is a short summary of my second week in Izumi city, Osaka!
More than two weeks already passed, wooow! Time is running so fast.

Everyday we have the most delicious lunch haha ♥
On Monday I took this picture:

 

Also, I try so many different vegetables here I've never tried before, very interesting! (I even tried natto two times because everyone here loves it but I don't like it at all bwaaah ^^''' )

Sometimes people come around during worktime and give us delicious things like this:

Aww ♥

My daily schedule here at my host family's place looks like this:

10:00 - 10:45 cleaning the house! 

10:45 - 11:50 time to stroll around!

11:50 - 12:10 helping in the kitchen and setting the table!

12:10 - 12:45 lunch!

12:45 - 13:00 doing the dishes!

13:00 - 18:00 regular working time! always something different.

18:00 - 19:50 free time again!

19:50 - 20:10 helping in the kitchen and setting the table again...

20:10 - 21:30 dinner & spending time with host family!

21:30 - 21:50 doing the dishes ... again!

After that I have free time. And Saturday and Sunday are my days off  ♥

On Thursday I took a walk to local supermarket Marunaka.

The weather was still incredibly good!

Marunaka!!

They had the most delicious Halloween candy aaaaaaah *__*

Pocky Special Edition <3

KitKat with Pumpkin Pudding flavour xDD

I also couldn't resist to buy Matcha KitKat, Dorayaki and fruits ^////^

Delicious!

On Friday my host family invited me to a japanese-style restaurant!

A really nice place but unfortunately it was a meat restaurant and since I'm vegetarian I could only eat rice and soybean sprouts ^^''' But it was a funny evening anyway!

On weekend I was very busy visiting Kyoto and Nara ♥ ♥ So beautiful! But I will write about that in another post!

Besides that:
Some of you might have already heard the exciting news ♥ but if not: Japanese Hime Gyaru brand La Pafait has opened a new online store!!  ♥ ♥ ♥
So now with the help of a shopping service everybody can order from La Pafait ♥ So cool *-*

Please take a look over here: http://lapafait.net/



That's all for today, thanks for reading and have a nice evening~  ♥

First days in Japan + Make Up Paradise ♥

Hello lovelies,

How was your week so far?

Another two days in Osaka passed and I'm still very busy! ^__^

There's a lot of work to do at my host family's house and working place! I help doing the most cliché japanese work I can imagine: cleaning and restoring old video games and consoles! I love it! xD Really interesting!

Yesterday one of my host family members asked me if I wanted to take public bus after work (at least I thought so) but was really confused later when I was asked to get myself a towel and shampoo ^^''' actually they meant public BATH lol

So this was my very first time ever visiting ONSEN!! ^____^

Onsen from outside! It was soo good ♥  ♥  But well, I guess it's even better in winter since it's still nearly 30°C outside at the moment..

Also yesterday at work we were given some delicious banana cake and coffee!

Aww! Very delicious (and sweet)! It was yellow cake with white cream and real banana inside! you can't see it very well but from the side the cake also looked like a banana!

Today before dinner I went for a 10-minute walk through Izumi City because I wanted to visit Drugstore Eleven!

Lampions eeeeverywhere!

Beautiful Osaka in the evening ♥

Drug Eleven from Outside...

...aaand Inside! *____* I went in and... kinda freaked out :D It was the first shop I visited and I found it so so awesome! I saw all the Make Up and Beauty Products I've only known from the Internet before!

Palty Haircolour!



Beautiful Tsubasa Masuwaka! *__*



Lots and lots of cute stuff! I could have bought everything :D



Dolly Wink False Eyelashes!! *////*



Beautiful Liquid Eyeliner! Maybe I'll buy it next time!



I was so happy spending time at this shop. I know it's a bit foolish but yeah... maybe I'm a weird person~^^'  It just felt so unreal to be there! I mean.. I wanted to go shopping in Japan since I'm eleven years old and even though it was just a small shop it was very special for me! It even got better when they suddenly played Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's Pon Pon Pon! Perfect! Felt like dreaming haha ♥

I had to laugh at this :D kawaii packaged tampons!

More False Eyelashes! So pretty! <33

And of course I also bought a few things.. but it was definitely not my last visit at Drug Eleven!! 

What I bought today:

Pink sparkling small Curling Iron! ^-^ I still have no matching adapter for my Hair Straightener and -Dryer (only phone cable fits -.- ), so this will be very useful! (and cute ^.^)

Cute Lower Lashes I found... I want to buy Dolly Wink ones as well!

 

...aaand Dolly Wink Upper Lashes 'Dolly Sweet'!! Finally! I alway wanted to buy them but why inconvenient online order when you can just buy them instore ;)

So, that's all for now! Tomorrow is my last working day this week and then on weekend I'm planning to do more sightseeing and shopping in beautiful Osaka!

I wish you all a wonderful day!

Arrival in Japan ♥

Hello everyone ♥
How are you?

Soo I finally have time to write an update on my blog about the very exciting things that are going on recently!
On Sunday my parents brought me to Frankfurt Airport by car because at 3:20pm I took the plane to Osaka, Japan!! ♥

Frankfurt Airport

 

I was reeeally excited about the flight, but I must say, at the beginning I was also very sad... because saying goodbye to everyone was really hard for me :( But anyway, I like flying and Emirates Airlines was just great! I could even choose a very delicious vegan meal! Plus I watched the Great Gatsby haha~  



 

 

Sunset over Turkey

 

I had to change to another plane in Dubai!

 



 

Dubai at night! It was so so impressing!

 

 

 

Dubai Airport! Everywhere were palm trees and fountains...

 

 

...aaand luxury shops ^__^

 

I had to wait at Dubai Airport for 4 hours! It was like 11:30pm when I arrived and still 35°C hot!! crazy! haha~ I had two scarves and a jacket on because it was quite cold on the previous plane! I really didn't want to behave like a crazy tourist but two stylish japanese girls waited with me and one had a Nadia bag *__* I couldn't stop staring at it, waaah! ^\\\^ Can't wait to visit the store in Tokyo!  Then plane again:

 

 

 

South Korea!! Awww can't wait to go there too ♥

 

 

And finally Japan!!!

 

I arrived at about 5pm at Kansai International Airport Osaka! ^___^ Still can't believe it! all in all the flight took me more than 18 hours!

While I'm in Japan I will take part in a program called 'WWOOFing' where you can live with a japanese family and help them with work and in return they provide food and a sleeping place! (no money, it's more about cultural exchange).

 

First I needed to take the train to Izumi Fuchu Station, where my host family picked me up. I asked a girl for the right train line and she was so nice and went the whole way with me and showed me everything! ^__^ I was so happy about it! Now we want to meet up again~

 

Everyone at my new place was so nice and friendly! But I was really tired and went to bed early...

Next day (today^^) I took a walk in the morning and enjoyed Izumi City ♥

 

 

 

 

Nice quiet streets

 

 

                                               

 

nice small river <3

 

                                               

 

Lampions everywhere!

 

And this was our lunch today: Ramen! ^__^ ♥

 

                                               

There's so much more to say about this first two days but I guess that's enough for now ;) I'm really looking forward to my time here in Japan!

 

Have a nice day!

 

P.S. can somebody tell me what's written on the lampions? :D
