During the height of Covid I definitely wasn’t stoked on most things being closed and not being able to easily meet new people but at the time I overlooked some things that were rad about it. I miss walking around some of the generally most crowded spots of Tokyo with almost no one around. I miss the relaxing train rides absent of crowds. Obnoxious streamers were largely not a thing. Getting into restaurants was always super easy. Ya I had a hell of a lot more fun prior to covid in Tokyo but the lockdowns sure were an interesting time. Anything y’all miss about that time?
