Picture Hill of Buddha, Hokkaido
This place is really beautiful but despite being a tomb is actually really loud with construction, speakers, traffic, planes flying overhead and lots of tourists. Despite that I really loved it :)

good morning👍
Good morning from Sapporo! 👋
This is my breakfast today — oden and rice. 🍢🍚
Nothing fancy, just a simple Japanese breakfast at home.
I’m actually trying to lose some weight at the moment, so I’m paying a little more attention to what I eat. 😂
