   Exploring coffee places all around the world is my passion. It’s just something I cannot forget about all the time. Let's take a look at the experience of buying a cup of coffee from a convenience store in Japan. The coffee from Lawson is beyond your expectation Previously I have explained how amazing the coffee from convenience stores is in Japan.

Minimalism helped me a lot for moving out.

    Emergency or sudden change will happen out of blue. It’s very rare for me to experience some kind of sudden change or emergency but this time, it did happen to me. I had to move out of my place in two days after the notification came to me. Let’s take a look at the details of what happened to me and why being a minimalist has significantly helped me out. Let’s dive into it.   What happened to me? It happened all suddenly last week. As I have written on my profile page , I’m going to move to Sweden this month; technically in three days from today. Last Tuesday I was waiting for the date of the interview at the embassy to be decided, and on Tuesday noon it turned out that Thursday morning will be the interview time. If I miss that date, the next interview will be a week after which is exactly the same date as my flight, so I had to show up last week Thursday morning in Tokyo . Knowing that I had to leave Kobe, my hometown pretty far from Tokyo, in two days, and even ...
