Wouw, it's been a while ! I gotta say my last weeks were kinda busy : new project at work (i now have a reason to stay at work after 3PM!), busy week ends. After being here for almost 2 months, i have to say that i totally enjoy my life here. I miss some persons back to France, England or Brazil but I'm now used to be away from friends for a while, i guess i get used to it !

By the way, I've added some feature to this website so that we can share our pieces of life ! I'm talking about our blogs or favorite websites that we keep updated or read frequently. Go to the shared bookmark section and add your own blog. I would be very glad to have on this site some kind of list of all that ! Note : You have to create an account on the site to be able to add bookmarks. It's just ... [more]

Hey mates ! I have to say there is not many things that i do with a camera here. So, yes, I see a lot of Tokyo but i can't have a camera with me, and sometimes, even if i have one, i don't feel like ruining the moment with a picture. But this afternoon, I went out with the aim at taking pictures... i did it, finally !

Headphones on, i've got 40 minutes of metro to reach my "target" : 表参道 (Omote-Sandoo) station, near 渋谷 (Shibuya). Why there ? mhm, first because there is a famous temple 明治神宮 (Meiji Jinguu), an imperial sanctuary. And secondly because, on the way to the temple from this station, i have to walk down a mini "Champs Elysees", full of expansive people/shops like you can see ! ... [more]

Ouch, Another week ! Feels like time's passing by.... Thing is, I still didnt take pictures of my University and where i work, i'll probably do that next week. But because I owe you some news, i figured out i could post these pictures taken from the 東京タワー (Tokyo Tower). Last tuesday, i was going to school as usual (monday was a holiday remember) and when i reached the station where i switch trains, i heard that my train wasn't working since 9h30 (yes, i go to school a bit late ) and the staff had no idea when it would be working again (yes again, i understand a bit of japanese, enough to understand that my train isn't working and that i can have a day off ). So i had my day off and i decided to do something of it. I searched the easiest thing to vi... [more]

Hi there !! One week already and i'm back home, a monday night, after a long week end (Monday was a holiday here) ! I'm happy cause my week end was kinda busy . Saturday was the shopping day, and, as usual i spent money. But this time I took care of keeping some for my future japanese-way-of-life item : the cellphone . It might sound usual but, as a foreigner and being here for only a couple months it's hard to keep contact with people, the cellphone is definitly a ´must have´ ! Anyway, i couldnt get it on saturday cause of a 'sold out' problem... gotta wait till wednesday... too bad ! I have to focus to not spend my money til then !!

Oh right, i didn't introduce you with my pictures, my bad. So, dear readers, this is 浅草寺 (Sensō-Ji)... [more]

Ola Amigos ! No, don't worry, i'm not trying a third language, it's already hard enough to write two of them, and study a third one next to that ! Alright, so I know i owe you some explanations about this picture on the left ! If you're not french or didn't like to watch FR3 sunday night just before 7 sur 7 on TF1 (yes all of that are french programs on french tv... sorry), you may not understand the genius idea hidden behind this wonderful picture : the Cat's Eyes tadadaaaaa !! Thing is, i loved this cartoon and when i saw a coffee called "The Cat's Eye" i couldn't help myself taking a picture and telling you all that, eventhouth it's totally weird .

I saw this coffee on my way to 秋葉原 (Akihabara), the electric/electronic Town of Tokyo. You might n... [more]
