This post shall be dedicated to snacks along Kawabatadori and sakuradori  shopping street.

I'm not sure how you usually budget your travels, mine is like 70% food. Of the 70%, probably 50% goes to main meals and the other 50% goes to snacks. When I travel, I eat MULTIPLE meals a day. I remember being in Melbourne with Samuel Kwok a few years ago and when we came back he told Nick " Dude, Vera is just eating the WHOLE DAY"

Yep, that's me :D
Somehow when I'm travelling it's like my stomach undergoes some kinda binary fission and I suddenly have x2 or x3 more space for food. It's like I have this mentality, which is kinda unhealthy both physically and financially " Wah, come until so far, if don't eat, so wasted ! " So I stuff and stuff and stuff myself.

But I'm not stuffing myself until the food is up to my throat and I feel the need to puke. I don't need to puke, in fact, I feel... just fine. Which is why I say yeah, I think my stomach undergoes some kinda weird binary fission hmmmm
