In a Split Second

"If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food, it's a plus for everybody." #AnthonyBourdain #anthonybourdainquotes #quotes #ilovenature #bambooforest #bamboogrove #bamboo #morningwalk #theviewfromhere #easternbeauty #onlyinjapan #sunrise #sunlit #magical #japan #kansai #kyoto #traveljapan #travel #travelphotography #vacation #holiday #travelbug #travelgram #adventure #traveler #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond

It was early in the morning, we could hear the monks chanting. It was calming, and the temple was serene. Nanzenji was a last minute decision based on a friend's recommendation, and a total gem. #nanzenji #temple #kyototemple #kyotohiddengems #offthebeatenpath #japan #kansai #kyoto #travelkyoto #traveljapan #travel #travelphotography #kyotomustsee #vacation #holiday #travelbug #travelgram #adventure #traveler #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond

Nanzenji was a magical discovery. The weather was perfect, we listened to the monks' morning chants as we strolled through the beautiful rock garden exploring the temple grounds. #nanzenji #rockgarden #garden #nature #offthebeatenpath #buddhist #temple #monk #japan #kansai #kyoto #traveljapan #travel #travelphotography #vacation #holiday #travelbug #travelgram #adventure #traveler #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond

This was one of the most amazing dinners we've had during our trip to Japan, and it was completely vegetarian! We stayed overnight in a lodging temple, and this was the dinner they served. It was absolutely fantastic, and everything was cooked to perfection. I definitely want to try more of this type of cuisine next time we return. #omg #ryokandinner #dinner #vegetarian #templefood #healthyeating #fancydinner #foodiesparadise #travelfoodie #foodinjapan #japan #food #foodie #yycfoodie #foorgram #foodporn #yummy #yum #nom #delicious #instafood #foodphotography #foodiesofinstagram #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond

Hidden in the alleys of Ninenzaka Kyoto, is the magical land of Ghibli. Behold the amazing other-worldly sights upon entering this parallel universe, where the corpses of giants lay the paths, and where imagination has no limit. #ghibli #depthobsessed #depthoffield #travelkyoto #ghiblistudio #laputa #japan #kansai #kyoto #traveljapan #travel #travelphotography #vacation #holiday #travelbug #travelgram #adventure #traveler #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond

There's a really cool Starbucks hidden in the neighborhood of Ninenzaka, Kyoto. It's a traditional building that overlooks this popular tourist spot. An absolute delight to visit and a great place to take a break from all day of site seeing. #kyotomustsee #kyotorecommendation #hiddengem #starbucks #kyotostarbucks #gion #ninenzaka #traditionaljapanese #architecture #japan #kansai #kyoto #traveljapan #travel #travelphotography #vacation #holiday #travelbug #travelgram #adventure #traveler #todayslovely #thedulcelife #inasplitsecond
