Hi chitchatters!
It has been a long time since I last wrote here…I am back
This time I want to share with you some little discoveries I have come across over the past year.
First, of course, it is about food! I bet many of you have no idea how amazing Georgian food is! Actually me too)) until I stumbled into a small restaurant in Tbilisi last July. Georgia is not a state in the US but a small country in the Caucasus)) a country that famous for its hospitality, many churches (just an amazing mixture of architectural styles), wine shops, and food (!). If you have any chance to try Georgian cuisine, I recommend you to have a good portion of Lobio (read beans baked in a clay pot/kidney bean stew). Or if you are a cheese-lover, khachapuri is just made for you!
Back to Japan, do you know where the most delicious sea urchin is (sure, except Hokkaido, I would not dare argue with you)? In Tsushima, according to my personal experience. The Tsushima uni I tried last September was fantastic! Btw, have you ever been to the Tsushima Island?
Another thing I need to admit is that travelling with a ligament tear in your knee is not pleasant. Don’t do that - hurts like hell…better not to get injured.
Finally – beautiful sakura in Hokkaido! This year I had my first REAL hanami. Cherry blossom trees in Hakodate and Matsumae were so beautiful! A huge variety of different types of sakura blossom trees all around the Matsumae castle, gorgeous landscape of Hakodate’s Goryoukaku, amazing breakfast at Asa-ichi….are certainly among my best memories of Japan!
To be continued…
