KOKOROSOZORO

My heart is wandering lately

Is it because it's spring?

Is it because it's getting warmer?

Maybe it's because the town is bustling with people enjoying cherry blossom viewing and I'm carried away by the vibe?

It was my last dinner in Japan with my good friend, a former subordinate, who is now my friend, a girl like me.

I headed to a place called Jangara, which is right next to the Harajuku exit of Meiji-Jingumae Station.

It's a vegan ramen restaurant that we've been to a few times.

It's always empty and you can easily get a seat without making a reservation, so I popped in just like that, and as soon as the elevator doors to that floor opened, there was such a long line of people that it was impossible to get off!!!

Since the building has one tenant on each floor, I couldn't really get a sense of the situation until I got down there, but there were already two lines along the windows.

I forced myself to get off the train, and finally caught a staff member, who I asked "It's going to be a long wait, right?" He replied, "Are you an idiot? No matter how you look at it, isn't it?" with a suspicious look on his face, even before I could say anything.

I left the place and was a dinner refugee ever since.

Everywhere you go, in Omotesando and Harajuku, there are lines everywhere you go, so I ended up becoming a dinner refugee.

After walking and walking, I finally got into a restaurant just before 9pm, the last order time! I wandered around for an hour and a half.

Foreigners who came to Japan for the cherry blossom season were occupying every corner.

We were sweet

It was so cool...

The number of foreign customers at the ar* store in Nihonbashi is increasing.

So that night, I was shocked at how stupid I was and wondered if I hadn't predicted this would happen in the first place.

Well, in the end, I found a sparkling wine called "Japanese Bubbles" made in Japan, and had a fun dinner with my girlfriend, so it all worked out well♪

And what products at ar* are popular with foreign customers? Well, they are!!!

Well, it varies from person to person (laughs), but the Men's Silk 100% T-Shirts are popular! What's more, female customers are buying them.

Because it feels great on the skin

I feel like, well, that's true.

Moreover, when I told her, "Even the sewing thread is made of silk," she replied, "Wow, really!"

And then there are our staple items, the 2way Warmers (some people buy them as souvenirs, while others buy a few for themselves and a souvenir! Viva the weak yen...)

So, without any hesitation, I put on the Silk Jersey Hoodie once and immediately thought, "I'll take this."

And it goes without saying that whenever I introduce it to someone, they always say, "I want it! I'll buy it!" It's the hero product from ar*, made in Japan, Silk Skin Veil Cream.

There are a lot of people outside today

The last weekend with nice weather and temperatures was this week before the cherry blossoms fell.

Rain forecast for Tokyo next weekend (according to iPhone Weather)

Have a nice weekend

Silk is the best! Love Silk
