Yawataya Isogoro Shichimi Togarashi is a seasoning I buy again every time I visit Japan. As soon as you open the can, you can smell its rich, spicy aroma. The heat is mild and doesn't overpower the food's original flavor. Whether sprinkled over ramen, udon, rice bowls, grilled dishes, or even miso soup, it adds depth and makes the food even more delicious.

Cape Chinen Park
Located in Nanjo City in southern Okinawa, Cape Chinen Park sits dramatically at the edge of Cape Chinen, jutting out into the Pacific Ocean. This scenic spot offers panoramic, 250-degree ocean views that stretch across vibrant coral reefs. The mesmerizing gradient from emerald green to deep cobalt blue is nothing short of breathtaking. You can also catch sight of nearby uninhabited Komaka Island, known for its white sandy beaches, and Kudaka Island-revered as the “Island of the Gods.” On clear days, you may even see as far as Tsuken Island and the Katsuren Peninsula to the northeast.
Cape Chinen Park is one of my favorite spots in Okinawa. From the walking path, you can see the endless blue ocean, and the sea breeze feels so refreshing that it instantly puts you at ease. When the weather is nice, the water shows different shades of blue, and the scenery is truly soothing. It's a great place to take photos or quietly enjoy the ocean view. You don't need to stay very long, but the laid-back atmosphere makes you want to slow down and fully appreciate Okinawa's natural beauty.

Naha Kokusai-dori Shopping Street
Naha City Kokusai-dori Shopping Street is located in the center of Naha City and is the main street representing Okinawa. It is the largest downtown area in Naha City and is famous as the center of commerce and entertainment. It is known as "Kokusai-dori (International street)," based on the concept of "a people-friendly town and a town that is fun to walk through.
Naha's Kokusai-dori has such a lively Okinawan atmosphere. There are lots of souvenir shops, drugstores, and local specialties along the way, so you won't get bored while strolling and snacking. I also bought snow salt treats, brown sugar snacks, and limited-edition items, and I still wanted to keep browsing even at the end.

Medicinal Pyuora Toothpaste [quasi-pharmaceutical products]
This medicated toothpaste was developed for periodontal troubles such as stickiness, bad breath, and gingivitis. It comes in three types: Clean Mint, Strong Mint, and Mild Herb.
Kao Pure Oral whitening toothpaste produces a fine foam when brushing. The mint flavor is refreshing but not too strong, and my mouth feels fresh afterward. With continued use, I noticed that tea and coffee stains on the surface of my teeth were easier to remove, and my teeth looked cleaner with a natural shine.
