Welcome to another series of The Equinox Fashion Travel with Global Travel Blogger Summit Japan. I just cannot thank you enough about the feedback I have received regarding the journey I have had since March this year (and almost 40 comments of Visit Parco Hiroshima!) If you follow me on my Instagram (@thequinoxfashion) You will notice that I am about to embark on the "solo trip" to Japan (again). People say "omg I am so jeaous", "You going there again!?" To be honest, I am not the rich blogger, or anything like that. However, this is what I have decided to be. To work like a freelance, and live my life to the fullest. I can say that I am the social media editor, stylist, Thai fashion blogger, and traveler. Life couldn't be happier :)
The goal of my life to to "live free without worrying about anything" I am not married, not even have a kid, so I have got nothing to hold me back at this point. Some people ask how can I manage to travel very often? As I just came back from Taiwan! Trust me, I work my ass of everyday...I mean, not only I work at the office as the online marketing person, but also my freelance basis almost everyday every night. I love working actually, because that is how I earn money. I work a lot, I save money, and off to somewhere again & again. That's right, I work hard, in exchange of the flight ticket. Crazy, I know! But "I am not gonna die for nothing you know"
What do I gain from travelling? A personal growth, I guess...As well as, the experience I will never be able to get from anywhere else. Some of us may want to be the CEO of the company, work hard, earn a lot, and be the super #girlboss I LOVE this attitude, but it is just not for me right now... I want to have my own company in the future (maybe 4 or 5 years from now) So, I am taking an advantage of my 20s to do whatever I want to do first. Just think about it, you won't be able to do the crazy shit like hiking, or party until the sun rises when you are 50 years old, right? Family, husband, wife, children, insurance, all of the goddamn responsibilities will stop you from being "YOU" when you reach that stage. We only live once, remember that!
So, here at Nara, one of the most gorgeous Sakura experience I have ever seen in Japan, was one of my favourite destinations, while traveling in this country. Though, I only stayed for 1 day (no need for longer than a few days actually) I got the chance to ride a bike and take a tour around at 6:30 a.m. before I went to the airport. Located only 45 minutes by train from Osaka, we reached Nara around noon and stayed at Oak Hostel. However, it was raining all day, so we didn't have a chance to see the well-known "deer" Which is how Nara has attracted a lot of tourists by this beautiful creature. Generally, they are walking everywhere!!!! And I am not kidding...
If you are looking for a place to stay when visit Nara, Oak Hostel is quite convenient. Not only you can ride the bike and explore the city, but also close to the bus stop, which takes you to the Osaka airport directly (KIK) Well, it took me only a few minutes walk to the bus stop! Not bad eh?
How to explore Nara? Just grab a bike, like Japanese housewife style. That's how I rolled actually. I rode around the town, and these are the photos of the places where I went to. Trust me, no need a car, because the bicycle's the most convenient option you can ever imagine!
