Hobonichi Techo

There's a craze sweeping America. It began a few years ago, infecting just a handful of people. Now its followers are numbering in the thousands, growing exponentially each year.

I am, of course, referring to the people using the Hobonichi Techo, a daily planner brought to us from Japan, whose popularity is due in no small part to my former roommate Lindsay. I've been using them for nearly two years now, and I've already placed an order for next year's planner. Today I'm going to talk about why I've grown attached to this craze, and why you might want to as well.

Japan Trip XIII: Shibuya/The Loft

As the Japan trip fades into memory, it's getting harder to recount the trip with total veracity. We're already limited to things that stood out in my mind to begin with. And it doesn't help that I'm still recounting this day in which I was mostly out of it due to motion sickness.

Regardless, I'll try to remember what I can about our first trip to Shibuya.
