Sometimes, if you're lucky, you find a place you want to return to, over and over again. I've had the incredible fortune of marking my 10th visit to #Japan this year and so it was time to note down 10 travel lessons I've learned along the way: youtu.be/8FVrt76Zk6c

has anyone had a dream about work where they've like...given a really good presentation and everyone is happy and impressed, or they got promoted or just something GOOD and non-stressful, or am I betraying something very telling about my psyche because lmfao

mone's SP felt too childish almost for her but it was a great idea for a boston worlds crowd to have her be hyped up like this

Have you ever seen Tsuruga Castle in #AizuWakamatsu completely covered by snow quite like this? Sharing some unforgettable winter sights in #Fukushima during their record-breaking amount of snow in February, still something I find hard to forget! #Japan #Japantravel

Some of my favourite photos from my #ChinaTravel experience was taken in the #Longji Rice Terraces right before harvest, where the layers of golden fields stretched down the mountain like dragon scales

New video: Experiencing Ashinomaki Onsen Ookawaso in the #Japan winter! There's nothing quite like soaking in onsen in the winter air, with snow falling all around you, that's another bucket list item ticked off. One of my favourite #ryokan to date!

if we want the rewards of being loved (making creative content), we have to submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known (marketing creative content)

Sun, rain, fog, drones and 4000 steps in the #AvatarMountains - my #Zhangjiajie 3 day travel itinerary had it all, ft. monkeys, freezing chairlift rides and #Wukong. Excited to share our pathing, accommodation recs and experiences, definitely a highlight of my #China trip: youtu.be/62c_i4WcC9s

4. You CAN survive without a Chinese phone number but not with a lot of the apps they recommend. AMap and Meituan were my app stack MVPs and can do so much

5. Third party intermediaries can be hit or miss when booking train tickets. Trip is self-service and involves less cancellation/change fees

2. If you're an Aussie, #Vodafone's international roaming routes through Hong Kong. Pricey but convenient to tap into your monthly Aussie mobile data, VPN and international calls in one

3. So many attraction 'tickets' are now linked through your physical passport. Take it with you securely

5 #traveltips I wish I knew before going to #China in post-COVID age (& crouching in a #Longji rice field)

1. Alipay is your holy grail of payment app, translator and metro card storage all in one, but will charge you a platform transaction fee for >200ε…ƒ spends. Hack it by splitting your payments

we've spent months in a sisyphean battle to figure out how our little volunteer translation team's translated comments don't set off youtube's comment spam detection, and trying to evade the youtube customer support AI telling us there's nothing that can be done
