No doubt the best day of our holiday in Japan, (at least for me) was the day we went to Kyoto.

Up at 5:30am, out of the hotel by 6am, on the 6:30am Bullet Train, speeds hitting 177 miles per hour, which meant we were able to reach our destination in 2hrs and 15min. Bamboo Grove, here we come.

Kyoto has many bamboo forests, but by far the most famous bamboo grove in Kyoto is in Sagano, near the famous Arashiyama region. The grove has a road that runs through it from Nonomiya Shrine to Okochi Cottage. Walking this path, one must stop, look up and take in the sun rays that come down through the foliage. If you close your eyes and allow your senses to be heightened, you can take in a light scent of bamboo.

Not paying attention to the time, we spent almost 3hrs in the grove. That being said, we almost lost daylight, but not before I was able to get in a photo shoot.

Halloween 2019. Only Marvel fans knew that I was Misty Knight. Including myself. Had to research who she was beforehand. #mistyknight #marvel #marvelcomics #halloweencostume #halloweencostumes #halloween2019 #koshercoco #stylegonerogue #latex #fredericksofhollywood

Good morning VT. Leaf peeping right off the deck. #westdovervt #vermont #leafpeeping #fallfoliage #4dayweekend #koshercoco
When it arrives in just two days, you open layer after layer of cardboard boxes and bubble wrap to unveil this beauty. It really made me think, who the hell am I? #girlswithhatchets #huckberrynyc #adleraxe #hatchets #koshercoco #nyc #stylegonerogue
Saturday night was a good night. Morrissey (my everything) and Interpol in concert w/bff... could t ask for anything more. Amazing! #morrissey #morrisseytour2019 #morrisseyislife #foresthillsstadium #concertswithyourbestfriend #koshercoco #stylegonerogue
One month of consecutively coming to the gym, twice a week. Not a big deal for most but a miracle for my lazy ass these days. Next goal, step it up to three days a week n incorporate weights. Side-bar: H&M makes really nice workout clothing. So comfy n really soft. Who knew?! #newgoals #settinggoals #lazynomore #gettingfit #hm #funactivewear #koshercoco #stylegonerogue
