Any recommendations for museums and parks in #osaka? I have two days. I love history and crafts. Close to Nipponbashi is better.
What’s not to love about this?
So many people coming together to create Open Street Map. An app that allows me to download these maps and use them offline. The sheer number of restaurants. And out there it feels like about ten times more: isakayas one multiple levels of these buildings, both below ground and in the upper levels. There is ground level, the underground shopping and eateries, a motorway a bit further up, railways crossing, subways crossing. I love Asian mega cities. #osaka
The sad part is being alone in a mega city. Once you have eaten dinner, what are you going to do? Drink by yourself? I end up in my hotel room after a walk, ready for teeth brushing, shower, and one on one time with the laptop. And that feels weird. As is usual for me, by the third week I’m starting to miss my most favorite person in the world.

@kensanata When travelling, I usually take a book and go wandering around looking for interesting places to drink a beer or two and read a while. Often I just wind up just reading, but sometimes make new friends.
If there's night markets, I'll wander those once or twice a week, just because they're so amazing.
@MightyBigCar Yeah, that’s what I did for my evening stroll yesterday: an hour of Nipponbashi to collect some visuals. 😀 As I don’t drink beer, and generally only drink alcohol with family members, I often look at places to sit and wonder: should I drink more tea or coffee? Sometimes I wish I could just go in, pay 500¥ and sit there drinking tap water and enjoy free WiFi. Sadly, that doesn’t seem to exist.
