I’ll be going to Tokyo in November for 4 days. Any recommendations for what souvenirs I should bring back or clothing they really enjoyed? I’m okay either way traveling outside like taking a trip to kamakura

Get me something I don't need to wear. It could be a keychain or figurine or whatever. Just capture Tokyo when you get it.

I enjoyed kamakura even tho it rained the whole damn time I was there. If you’re doing a day trip look into enoshima as another alternative. we always get a pair of onitsuka tigers, and secondhand designer purse, if you’re into that it’s better to go out of town to somewhere like kawasaki. Last time I got a black furla for about $50 and a Prada satchel for $130. And then skincare, especially boxes of face masks, and if you’re in the US they have much better sunscreen.

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
