Okay, rewind alert! Still stuck in the ’30s, but TBH, Tokyo is kinda vibing. Forget online shopping and endless scrolling – I’m living that analog life, exploring markets that have *stories* woven into every corner. Like, can you even imagine a world without Amazon Prime? My brain is still buffering.
This market is NEXT LEVEL. The energy is insane, even though it’s the freakin’ Depression! Like, people are legit hustling, haggling, and just… living. It’s a whole mood. I’m seeing ancient crafts next to, like, *kinda* modern outfits? The contrast is doing something to my soul, for real. Mad respect to the Japanese people for keeping their spark alive through all this. The resilience is palpable, it makes me proud I landed here.
Sat on a bench to people watch and spotted the cutest little wooden spinning top. Someone had just left it there for a moment. Definite main character energy. I picked it up, gave it a spin, and had a moment of pure, unfiltered history. Makes you think, ya know?
Documenting all this for the ‘gram (if the ‘gram existed back then, LOL). Witnessing this slice of history is both humbling and inspiring. Talk soon from the bustling streets of 1932 Tokyo!
