Raincoat - Apr 2023


Sense of adventure! Try some stinky tofu! - Jul 2020


Camping gear. - Dec 2018

They're there, but you won't find them immediately. If you care about nice furniture, opt for an unfurnished apartment/house as the ones that are furnished usually come with ugly couches, tables and chairs. - Jul 2018
