My calendar has the dates of Japanese festivals in 2027 (there are SO MANY!).
Pre-order now, and they'll be sent out in time for Christmas & the new year: cakeswithfaces.co.uk/product…
Japan's new tax-free shopping system starts on 1st Nov. Instead of taking the tax off at the till, you'll need to scan your passport at the airport to get the tax refund. Full details in my video: youtu.be/sfKwLrbCSXQ
I'm back from Japan! ✨ So that means shipping's back to normal - and if you placed an order while I was away, it's on its way to you now (thank you!). 🙏
We did SO MUCH - I can't wait to edit all my new videos... 🧵
🤿 Went snorkelling with sea turtles (my first time ever swimming in the sea!)
🌳 Stayed in a TREEHOUSE in the forest.
🍦 Blue Seal ice cream challenge - find out if I managed to try every flavour!
🚗 First time driving in Japan
🍈 Tasted goya (Okinawan bitter melon). 🧵
The perfect place to escape the city in Tokyo, for a moment of calm in a traditional Japanese garden. Take a relaxing stroll with me (with matcha and sweets!) in today's video: youtu.be/Zh4-cHwOQ5g
Here's my easy-to-digest explainer on the new tax-free shopping process in Japan that starts 1st November: youtu.be/sfKwLrbCSXQ
If anyone's about to go to Japan & wondering about the weather, in Tokyo it's still lovely & warm t-shirt weather in the daytime (23-29°C), but you need a light hoodie in the evenings. There's a typhoon coming though so watch out for that.
I'm back at work today & sending out all your orders!
Gotta say, England seems SO grey & dark compared to Japan at this time of year. 😅 It was still 29°C in Tokyo yesterday.
If you placed an order while I was away, I'll start sending them out tomorrow, so it'll be on the way to you soooon!
Right now, fighting to keep my eyes open till night time.. 😅
Two hotels. The same price. Opposite sides of Tokyo.
Which would you pick?

Just donated to Rainforest Action Network to carbon offset my flights to Japan. 💚
I asked a friend who works in the environment, who said this would be the most effective, as most airlines' schemes tend to be greenwash-y.
Final call for orders before the shipping delay!
The cut-off is midday UK time (about 3 hours from now)
The other JR mascots are stepping up their game, now the Suica penguin's retirement's on the horizon...
