more shopping madness

more shopping madness, originally uploaded by bindifry.

i got lost in tokyo today and this is what i found. such an awesome long sleeved shirt! the graphics blow me away. it looks like a restaurant jersey. the detail is great. many of the shirts made here have printing on the sleeves, the back & the front. it's also very well made & a distressed fabric.

it was interesting getting lost, because i found stuff i did not know existed. i've been afraid to walk all over the place because it's really confusing here, and throw the language into the mix.

but my directional instinct kicked in & i found my #64 bus across from the NHK television building i remember passing before.

i tend to panic when i wander around unfamiliar territory, and i tried to relax & let go, but i couldn't . it just felt like an acid trip. so i fled.

i met an authorized teacher who has a studio very close to tokyo-yoga. he teaches a couple classes there as well as his own place in the giant samsung building. this makes me happy, because i'm sure he can help me with my practice. an american living in tokyo who is extremely tall, which looks kind of funny here. it's hard to find teachers like this, there aren't many of them. and i find it great that 2 astanga mysore studios can exist as friendly neighbors. something else americans can learn a thing about.
