Japan allows 50,000 visitors to enter daily
I was in the Narita International Airport for over 11 hours a few weeks ago. I would love to just go outside the airport and take some photos but alas, I could not even venture into another terminal from the terminal I was supposed to transit from. Yea, that’s how strict they are and thus,…

Want to buy a condo in the Olympic Village? Here’s your chance.
Tokyo Olympics have just ended on a good note. I do think this is the Olympics which is the hardest to organise because it was organised during a pandemic, Covid-19 pandemic.

I am against Brexit because I think the UK will gain more by staying within the European Union and not outside. Earlier articles are many and here’s one. Well, at least we have one more prediction which tells of the potential of the UK losing the 6th largest economy crown to France due to Brexit.…

When a company achieves a huge scale and needs further growth, they have to somehow find something else to do. Just as McDonald’s is also a super huge toy company, IKEA is super big with its restaurants too. Now we have another potential. AirBnB is already a familiar name to the world for home rental.…

I am against Brexit. I do not think going it alone is going to be beneficial to any country in the European Union. I know there are lots of reasons for and lots of reasons against and that it’s the decision of the majority (of those who voted). By the way, there were enough NON-voters…
