Roppongi Hills Area
-I observed around Roppongi Hills area, namely around Keyaki-Zaka for 3 days. This place is between 2 stations, Nogizaka and Azabujyuban.
I watched people and surroundings while i was sitting outside of Starbucks, drinking coffee.
It was around 4 pm and i saw some people walking with dogs( most of them were putting on cute clothes...:p)
Even if that place is really close to such an exclusive building, people come here as they take a walk or so.
They come to keyakizaka to take a walk, i could also see school kids going home, playing around. On the other hand, there were many business men and women coming to starbucks to buy coffee. I happened? to see couple of TUJ students during my observation and it seems TUJ students come to Nogizaka to take a break between classes^^ Since it is close to Roppongi, people around there were really international.
However, It was kinda strange to see school kids playing around near Roppongi Hills in thier school uniform. I guess they dont really have a huge park or anywhere they could get together and hang out as i used to in my childhood. It might be sort of hard to find that kind of place in the middle of tokyo, especially in Minato-ku. it was also really funny and strange to see nerdy-looking junior high school kids smoking as they passed Starbucks at Nogizaka!
