This is a common digestive medicine in Japanese households and is useful to keep at home if you often eat out or have irregular eating habits. Its main purpose is to regulate the intestinal environment and help with issues such as constipation, loose stools, and abdominal bloating. The small tablets are easy to take; just follow the instructions and take them after meals. If symptoms persist, you should seek medical attention and avoid relying on it too much.

After getting off the bus at “Hachiko Exit,” you can spot the eye-catching SHIBUYA 109 almost immediately, so it’s very convenient to get to. It was once a major birthplace of Japan’s gyaru culture and youth fashion, and the building is filled with clothing, accessories, and beauty brands aimed at younger shoppers. The overall atmosphere is lively and trendy. Personally, I wouldn’t go out of my way to include it in my itinerary anymore, but if you’re visiting Tokyo for the first time, I still recommend taking a look inside and experiencing Shibuya’s youthful fashion culture.

Kouri Beach has unforgettable vivid blue water, ranging from turquoise and light blue near the shore to a deep blue in the distance. The layers of color against the blue sky and white clouds are mesmerizing. The fine white sand, clear water, and laid-back atmosphere are full of Okinawa vacation vibes. The beautiful scenery I saw then has also become a treasured summer memory〜

Yokohama Marine Tower is one of Yokohama’s Three Towers and was once recognized by Guinness World Records as the tallest lighthouse in the world. Its main functions are sightseeing, observation, and guiding marine traffic. The tower is 106 meters tall and has two observation floors offering 360-degree views of Yokohama Port, Yokohama Bay Bridge, and the cityscape. The night view is especially romantic.

A coworker recommended this handy makeup setting spray, and it's a summer lifesaver! It promises powerful makeup hold and oil control, making it perfect for Taiwan's hot, humid climate and effectively preventing makeup from coming off, looking cakey, or becoming oily. The nozzle produces a fine mist, and a light spray forms a thin, transparent protective layer that keeps base makeup smooth and radiant all day. The lightweight 100 ml bottle is easy to carry around.

Curél Intensive Moisture Care Lotion has a light texture that absorbs well. It spreads easily without feeling heavy or sticky at all, making it great for daily care for sensitive skin. It features the key moisturizing ingredient ceramide, which helps deeply repair the skin barrier and retain moisture. Whenever my skin gets dry, itchy, or red during seasonal changes, it quickly soothes it. It’s even gentle enough for young children!

Kamakura Goro's Hangetsu cookies have a satisfying crunch, and the sweet and tart apple flavor is refreshing without being too rich, which left a strong impression! The caramel sandwich cookies exclusive to Haneda Airport were an even bigger surprise. The crisp cookies are paired with a rich filling of nuts and caramel chocolate, creating a deliciously rich, layered texture. Both are beautifully packaged and delicious souvenirs.

Kiyoken is a legendary Yokohama shop with a century of history, and the defining feature of its signature bite-sized shumai is that they're still extremely delicious even when cold! The shumai are specially made with carefully selected domestic pork and scallops. They're small and delicate, just the right size for one bite. The savory meat juices blend with the rich sweetness of the scallops, giving them a firm, springy texture and a distinctive taste of the sea. In addition to the classic original flavor, the shop often offers special scallop, Berkshire pork, and seasonal varieties. Its signature shumai bento, served with bamboo shoots and pickles, is one of the most iconic old-fashioned foods of Japanese train travel!

A popular souvenir that my Japanese coworkers like to buy~ Crisp layers of pastry are filled with a rich filling, then covered with a thin layer of chocolate. With each bite, the crisp, fragrant pastry blends with the rich chocolate, creating an extremely layered texture. There are plenty of flavors, including strawberry, lemon, pistachio, and hazelnut, and they often sell out in no time.

At Nagasaki Penguin Aquarium, you can see lots of adorable penguins all at once. Its biggest feature is the unique "Penguin Beach," where you can watch penguins swimming freely in the natural coastal waters. The aquarium also offers plenty of interactive experiences, such as up-close feeding, touching, and outdoor penguin walks, making it a great place for the whole family to experience the charm of marine life!
