Waqoo - Shitadera, Japanese Hotel to Stay in Osaka

Waqoo- Shitadera, Osaka was the newest Japanese hotel in town. Though I didn't have a chance to stay that long, I could honestly say that I absorbed the Japanese culture from the hotel in just one night. From the traditional food set (bento) to Shakyo and Shabutsu practice, it was such a good experience to get to know Japanese more by the activities offered. Want to have a few nights in the Japanese style bedroom? Here is the place you might want to consider before booking a flight to Osaka. 

Visit Parco Hiroshima

Before we "Global Travel Blogger Summit" left Hiroshima, we had a chance to stop by at Parco Hiroshima, in order to experience the shopping vibe of Japanese shopping mall. I had never been to this place, but heard a lot about it. Somehow, the fashion scene of Parco's totally different from Bangkok, or Manchester. Instead, it's more like Japanese fashion sense, which combines lifestyle and minimalism together. When I said minimal, it's not like Europe's minimal style. It's Japanese minimal version. Want to see what it's like to be at Parco Hiroshima? You can see more photos below! 

The Another Side of Japan

Have you followed The Equinox Fashion's Travel lately? Either on Instagram, or this bloggosphere, you will notice that my contents keep shuffled between Japan, Taiwan, and Bangkok. But hey, I am currently back to Bangkok, Thailand (though some of my friends just have no idea where in the world I am now lol) As a fashion & travel blogger, this year has been AMAZING so far. Next month, I am off to Japan again...(and again later on..). However, what pops up in your head when you think about Japan? Of course, Tokyo, Osaka, big buildings, innovative & modern technology. However, in this post, let me show you the another side of the real Japanese lifestyle, which may seem opposite from what we have in mind. 

Kobe Animal Kingdom

Kobe Animal Kingdom was the first destination for all of us Global Travel Blogger before heading to Kobe Portopia Hotel. I went there with Olivia Lazuardy and her manager, while some others were still on the way to Japan. After 5 hours flight, I was heading to the first spot of the trip. Well-rested, and I was ready to roll! If you are traveling to Kobe with the family, boyfriend, girlfriend, kids, this can be one of the leisure places to hang around for an hour or so. 

How Blogging Gets Me a Job

The Equinox Fashion w/ Nikki & Mallory bag

At first, I wrote my blog as a hobby, which was nothing but an online diary like everyone else. When I firstly began The Equinox Fashion, the era of blogging was all about Susie Bubble, with no social media like Instagram and Snapchat. Lookbook was the viral platform that all the cool & hip users would upload their looks and hype one another style. However, blogging has been growing instantly and becoming one of the most important PR techniques. So, I would recommend every blogger to put your blog in the resume/CV because it might be able to land you the dream job. How do I know? Because The Equinox Fashion blog has got me a perfect lifestyle and job which I will never be able to find anywhere else.
