Replacing tubular tires in Japan can be very difficult especially for foreigners. I found one bike shop in Yoyogi via Google Maps that might be able to help you. This shop is very foreigner-friendly and they will try their best to communicate with you properly. Price list of services are also specified beforehand so you …
Lake Kasumigaura is the 2nd largest lake in Japan, next to Lake Biwa in the Kansai region. I researched about the lake and it seems to be famous amongst cyclists. I knew about this lake already because of the different flyers that I get, but unfortunately could not understand the contents. I was only reminded …
SEALs Airsoft is probably one of the foreigner friendly places that you can play and have fun with. I have been to several indoor fields and most of the staff aren’t as friendly and tolerant with foreigners. They give you warnings with simple, but avoidable mistakes like reminding you to lock your gun or mounting …
Sakura Avenue Last weekend, I went to the Miurakaigan Cherry Blossoms Festival. I heard about it in our office cycling club and that some members are actually riding. But for me, I went there with my girlfriend in the morning. We left Kawasaki around 9am and probably arrived 10am-ish in Miurakaigan station. The trip itself …
I had no plans for the Obon holidays, but also felt compelled that I needed to go somewhere as spending 3 days at home or just at Kawasaki area seems an overkill. I have only been out Kawasaki twice since I started here. First was when we had dinner with friends, and the second one …

After my vacation back in Cagayan de Oro, I still had a lot of things to settle back in Manila. Aside from the usual send off get togethers, my biggest roadblock was really getting rid of my things. Initially, I told myself that I would just sell them off at OLX. But just the though …
Thank you OLX Philippines for the opportunity to work with you for the past 6 years. My journey with you wasn’t easy, in fact, it was rocky at first. There were times that I wanted to give up, and even wanted to leave. Tried applying overseas and in other tech companies locally. All of which rejected …
Today marks the 120th Independence of my country, the Philippines, from Spain on June 12 1898. I’ve seen flags being sold and displayed already on the streets. However, today is also the day that I submitted my resignation letter to my current employer, OLX Philippines. As you may know, I have already been given a …
The last time I did a pet transport in the Philippines, from Manila to Cagayan de Oro was, I think, last 2011. I had to transport two kittens and they fit perfectly on a single cage. However, I will be transporting two adult cats this time. There’s not much information at the Bureau of Animal …
