Queen's Travel & lifestyle

Living in Japan for few weeks, I felt so relaxed and homely.  It is one of the best destination for Independent people. You will never get bore living in Japan. There is so much to do and I felt that wish I stayed longer.  Now that I'am back in UAE, I definitely miss Japan..!! Here are the following lists - Safety - I felt extremely safe while I was there. I'am sure crime exist but during my stay I did not feel scared at all. I walked around every where alone did not come across anything unusual. I'am a very much an out door person so I enjoy walking around , exploring the streets and town.   Cleanliness - The house I lived was super clean, which made me very comfortable. The roads  are pretty clean too.  Moist towels in restaurants and cafes-  In Japan, almost every restaurant or cafe you visit, they will provide you a moist towel to wipe your hands the moment you take a seat.  Tipping- When you visit any restaurants or cafe, you do not give tips. Even when they pr

I can't believe tonight is my last night in Tokyo. I've had the best time of my life. I'am happy with my decision that I choose to travel to Tokyo all by myself. I don't regret it at all. I came at the right time of my age where I don't have to worry about anything but enjoy the moment.  I'am extremely grateful to have met my two Japanese friends Kimi and Taro, my school friend Soumi, my manipuri friend Irena here. They have been the sweetest and kindest to me. Its a blessing to meet such wonderful people. I can't thank enough how happy I'am here in Tokyo. I've had amazing time with all. I wish to meet you guys again.   It is always sad when the trip comes to an end. Coming to Japan I feel I've found what I was looking for.  I'am going back to work with so much motivation and Inspiration. I hope to come back again.  This country is on my top list and hope it will always be my no1. Thank you Japan..!! 

I'am glad to be experiencing the big city life- Tokyo, where arts, fashion, night life, food is the centre. During my stay I visited this few places and I definitely recommend you to visit them.  I enjoyed walking down to these streets and found plenty of cool stores and cafes around. I know, you will love it too. Please wear your most comfortable shoes..! Here are the following lists - Ginza is on my top list. It is huge and you will definitely be lost but would say you wouldn't mind it.  It is the posh street of Tokyo with many boutiques, high end fashion clothing.   Shibuya is on my second list. Love the vibrant nature of this street. This street is known for young teenagers. Do check out the 109 building , the fashion hub for girls.  Harajuku is a must visit for the young girls. It is a fashion street.  Here you find the latest in young fashion from every tribe.  It is a walking distance from Shibuya.  Asakusa is lined with stalls of different sellers. It has changed

I woke up to the news of Linkin Park's lead singer Chester Bennington passed away. He took his own life at the age of 41. I was extremely sad with the news cause half of my childhood I grew up listening to his song. What make me even more sad is he committed suicide. The questions come why would you do that to your self? why? I read on the news that he had been abused as a child by an older male.  He struggled with drugs and alcohol for years. He was suffering from DEPRESSION. This also reminded me of my very dear college friend who committed suicide at the age of 21. I was devastated and would say it was one of the biggest shock of my life. I was very close to her.  It was hard to believe that she was no more.  I came to understand that she suffered from Depression. I never knew until I read all her poems. She loved writing poems, her poems was very blue. From this, I would say that there are so many people who is suffering from mental illness but they won't let us know o

When you want to go on a trip, we always consider going with family or friends. But sometimes we cannot coordinate the schedule with the people we want to travel. We always have a fear of doing by our self.  Break this comfort zone and challenge yourself. Just book those tickets and pack your bags, go anyway.  Life is short. Don't think too much. Just do it..!! Don't sacrifice your dream. We live only once. Do what ever you wish to do in this life. Go and make new friends. Don't be afraid..!!You will not regret it.   You will be surprise how enjoyable it is to spend time alone. Travelling alone is a life changing experience. It is very powerful, you will come out so strong.  It will make you a better and smarter person.  You will be more focus and attentive to a new environment. It will help you to tackle difficult task in life the things you were afraid of.  You will inspire others, you will have so many stories to tell.  You must have read many books about pla

Einstein once said " The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know. With age comes not knowledge but wisdom. As I'am in my 29, I have started to reflect on how different I was, how much I have learnt and how much I'am going to learn. This also means that there is plenty of time of reinvention, finding love, having fun, learning and discovering. 1. I stop giving too much attention to people who does not care about me. 2. I'am single. 3. I can get ready in 5 minutes. 4. I used to love watching music videos in MTV and VH1. 5. Watching movies alone in theatre not a big deal. 6. I don't regret anything in my past. 7. I was trendy and I'am still trendy. I love Fashion. Cloths play an important role in my life. The creativeness in me, one of the ways in expressing myself. 8. I love classic films. 9. Sleep super early on work days. Breakfast is a must. 10. Travelling and living abroad makes me more worldly and the experience are

1. I suggest you should download the Japanese language app on your phone. Langauge will be a problem cause not everyone speaks english. Try learning few Japanese words. 2. Japanese people are very helpful. Don't worry it is very safe here. 3. You should definitely try the local cuisines, food, drinks. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes everywhere. There are expensive and of course affordable ones too. You must try Uden, Tempura, Ramen, Sushi, traditional dish like rice, misho soup, grilled fish with lots of side dishes, The drinks you should try are the Japanese rice wine Sake and beer. 4. Japan has four seasons- Spring, summer, autumn,winter so carry your outfits according to which season you are traveling. The best time to visit Japan is during the spring and autumn. 5. The best way to travel around Japan is using the Train. They have the best public transport. They are connected from larger to small towns. They are very much on time. If you type the place from wh

Today I'am sharing what I eat on everyday.  I'am normally a healthy person but when I'am travelling I tend to be more healthy because falling sick or feeling unwell is the last thing I ever want to feel. I'am here all by myself, so I want to take good care of myself cause no one will. I know in my Instagram post, you will see most of the pictures posted are restaurant meal. I would like to let you know, I don't eat outside every single day. May be twice in a week, when I do eat outside meal it has to be good food. Otherwise mostly I'am cooking at home, when I'am cooking it is usually stir fried vegetables or boil vegetables and egg fried rice or plain rice. I tend to eat a lot of vegetables , eggs, fruits, fresh juice everyday. I'am a tea lover so I drink tea through out the day. My current favorite is match green tea and Ice lemon tea. I drink 2 litres of water everyday. I mostly eat two meals a day. For breakfast I have 2 bananas, one apple, mat

This is one of my most exciting post ever..!! I'am thrilled by the fact that I'am going to meet my friend from school after 10 years. We have never planned but it came as a surprise and we absolutely love it. Soumi and I are school friends and we have always stayed connected through social media in Facebook. Thanks to Facebook for letting me know she is here in Tokyo. I texted her and we decided to meet up in Shibuya. The day arrived, we both very much reached on time and met in Starbucks. We did not sit there instead I took her to bubble milk tea shop called Coco, which is one of my favorite. It was her first time so I'am glad she enjoyed her drink. We walked around and we headed to Harajuku,which is about 15 minutes by walk. While we were walking around we found a hidden garden so we decided to take a lot of pictures, it was small but really nice. We sat down to talk about what we did in the past 10 years? it was really a long conversation, so much to catch up bu

  One thing it is important to know that in Japan reservation is a must before you go to the restaurant. Most of the restaurants are pretty small so it is required to book a table, otherwise it is difficult to get a seat. Here is my top three favorite places to eat in Tokyo.  On my top list - If you want to eat an authentic Japanese cuisine then I suggest Suzaku in Ginza is the right place.  You will definitely love the warm environment and hospitality. The interior itself has a very Japanese vibes. I loved it. The food is AMAZING...!! Second is called Gonpachi in Roppongi, It is an interesting place love the positive vibes you could definitely feel it when you enter the restaurant.  It is pretty crowded during weekends. You would see a lot of tourist, also many famous people have visited this restaurant. It is a noisy place but food is great too.  Third one is called Karuta in Asakhusa view hotel. You can enjoy the traditional multi course
