Belgium Travel (English Video)
We went to Belgium the last time and I was surprised about Brussels. I want to go again sometime. The Strépy-Thieu boat lift and the beautiful train station in Liège-Guillemins were highlights.

Sommer-Vorbereitungen in Japan
In diesem Video gehe ich in ein Einrichtungshaus in Japan einkaufen. Viele kennen wahrscheinlich Muji aus Japan aber dies ist Niitori, billiger und das Sortiment ist breiter gefächert und manchmal sehr traditionell wenn es um Muster geht.
Der Sommer in Japan ist unheimlich heiß. Noch ist es Regenzeit und wahrscheinlich wird dies bis Mitte Juli in der Kanto Region auch so bleiben. Wir haben in allen Räumen Klimaanlagen und diese werden im Winter als Heizungen genutzt. Doch um die Nutzung so gering wie möglich zu halten versuche ich mit kleinen Tricks die Nutzung der Klimaanlage zu verringern, wie z.B. die Rollläden im Sommer zu schließen oder zu kühlender Bettwäsche zu wechseln. Eigentlich bin ich viel zu spät dran und wahrscheinlich sind die Schnäppchen schon alle weg aber ich habe keine Lust in meiner Winterbettwäsche und rund um die Uhr Klimaanlage durch den Sommer zu gehen. Für die Einen ist es langweilig, für die Anderen interessant.
Folgt mir auf meiner Einkaufstour in Japan.

Zitronen-Milch-Curry, ein Andenken aus Tochigi in Japan (Englisches Video)
In Japan findet man in jeder Prefecture verschiedene Spezialitäten. Wir waren vor zwei Wochen in Tochigi und diesmal habe ich Zitronen-Milch-Curry mitgebracht, ein schönes Andenken, dass sich jeder mit nach Hause nehmen kann.
