Mila Sakaiminato Brothel ❤️❤️

About Saitama

Precious, we’s talkin’ bout brothels now! We hates it! Nasty, filthy places they is—stink o’ sweat and cheap perfume. Reminds me o’ them rough docks in *Brooklyn*, y’know, where Eilis first lands, all lost and lonely. “This is no place for us,” we hisses, clawin’ at ourself. Brothels, they’s dens o’ sin, but—ha!—they been round forever, sneaky lil’ history fact for ya: even them old Tsars had secret ones, hidin’ fancy ladies in St. Petersburg basements! We’s shocked, precious, shocked!

Evolution of Japanese Brothels

After that, I needed a break. I wandered over to the Sakaiminato City Museum. It’s got some cool stuff about the city’s history. I learned that Sakaiminato is famous for its connection to the famous Japanese author, Natsume Sōseki. I mean, who knew? I felt kinda smart for a second. But then I got distracted by a display of weird-looking fish. Like, seriously, who thought these things were a good idea?

Tottori’s shrines have some of the most adorable charms you’ve ever seen!
