Okay, rewind! Imagine ditching your Insta feed for, like, *actual* history. Still trying to wrap my head around being yeeted back to the ’30s, but hey, at least the aesthetic is fire, right? Found myself in Kyoto today, witnessing a legit tea ceremony and honestly? Mind. Blown.
Thereβs something kinda surreal about seeing a ritual that’s been going down for centuries. The precision? The *vibes*? Immaculate. Every move is intentional, respectful…it’s a whole mood. It got me thinking about what stuff *we* do today will still matter, like, decades from now. Probably not my TikTok dances, lol. You could practically feel the history seeping out of the tatami mats, a weird mix of calm and…well, tension. Let’s just say 1932 Japan was dealing with some *stuff*.
Sat down after the last person left, and peeped this tiny, folded paper crane they’d left behind. So delicate! Had to give it a closer look before putting it back, though.
Anyway, documenting this whole time-travel saga is becoming my thing, right? Trying to soak up all these historical moments in Kyoto and share them with you guys, unfiltered. Turns out, even almost a century ago, people were searching for their zen. Who knew? π€―
