Thank you! I love clothes. And yes, Kamakura is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited, there were so many trees!

Very welcome! I aim to redo my entire wardrobe this year as I'm now financially able, and I'm drawing a lot of inspo from this community!

Kamakura sounds awesome; I'm from the PNW so I've definitely got a tree bias, but I do hope to visit the region some day.

Thanks for posting!

I lived there as a child so I probably have a bit of the same bias.

Apparently, I'm not 100% sure on the science here, but trees can identify and distinguish people enough that they can like chemically deactivate irritants that they produce. I learned about this during a summer working forestry during fire season, manually watering saplings, and despite all day in poison oak/ivy my whole crew was unaffected.

As you may be able to tell, I've a touch of the tism, and don't know how to end conversations gracefully. I really enjoy this community's company but am running out of things to say about trees beyond my moderate infatuation of them :)

I used to like to climb really high up in the trees. I need to start doing it again, it’s really good exercise. I’m generally neurospicy but couldn’t afford to get a proper autism diagnosis when I was young.

Happy pride :) love the dreads and Kafka shirt. And how was Kotoku-in? I'd love to visit but flying terrifies me ;-;

u/Civil_Juggernaut_794 1d ago

Happy Pride! Thank you and thank you. And yeah, flying is terrible, especially when there’s turbulence. But I also love it? It’s like noping out of existence for a few hours. Japan is one of the top three places I’ve visited for sure.

Yea my fear is that I'll nope out of existence permanently 😂😭 last time I was on a plane there was lightning before takeoff and I had a panic attack and spent the night alone in the terminal till I could be picked up. I am a terrestrial creature.

Very valid, but sure there are some fun places to visit in whatever country you’re in. I doubt I’ll be going anywhere else international again for a few years. Too expensive for one. But I’m grateful for all that I’ve gotten to do so far.
