running back from lunch


some of the hottest curries in tokyo...


... and here's the proof


even the traffic police don't know what the hell a tuk tuk is doing on the streets of shinjuku


don't let your kids run off with alien men


what a feeling!


they have all kinds of jobs here


only in japan, caucasian man bonding with japanese boy while watching a movie on a crowded train on a psp


akihabara (aka electric town)


with limited shelf space, one needs to get creative with displaying goods


for seng: gps units for motorbikes


gotta love the metal fro on the pachinko brother


and then it starts raining again


dinner with japanese photog yu ki and friends at an awesome little jump called enjoy!house off ebisu


the funky bartender/owner right out of a 70s movie


randy's crush of the night sitting behind him with her male friend


the homeless go to bed


it's hard to imagine a city like tokyo saddled with homeless people down on their luck, but beneath the glitz, charm and wealth of the city, shinjuku station is one of the many places to house the destitute when night falls.

not everything that glitters is gold.
