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~  ♥

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

What makes me feel alive ♥

Hello everyone, how are you ?

Today was very exciting for me, because you know what?
!! I booked my flight to Japan !! ^___^

Yes, it finally has come true, in about one month I will move to Japan and start my Work and Travel  journey through Japan and South Korea <33
This journey means everything to me, I have wanted to go to Japan since I was 11 years old so you can imagine how overly excited I am right now *__*
I booked my flight at sta travel, I can really recommend them to everyone who wants to do Work and Travel, they are experienced with this kind of customers ;) Plus: although I could only book my flight one month before the price was still good I think~

 

The shop where I bought my flight ticket ^-^ <3

What I will do: It was clear to me that I will try my best to fulfill my lifetime dream, travelling to Asia, after I've finished school. I thought about what kind of experience I want to make and found that "WWOOFing" will be the right choice for me :) If you don't know about it, I will talk about what WWOOFing is and why I wanted to do this in a later post <3 Now I'm looking forward to a nearly 6-month stay in my two beloved countries.

Not every station of my journey is confirmed yet, but I guess that's part of the experience and it's a bit exciting to not know exactly where the journey will go ^__^
My first stop will be Osaka, Japan!
And, as I stated in my very first post on this blog, I'm planning to use this blog as a kind of diary so there will be posts about my journey and lots of cute stuff regularly :)

Please note: I will update this post and add pictures as soon as I'll come to my pc again, I was just too excited and needed to make a post about it immediately ^__^

Have a nice day <3
