GACKT OFFICIAL WEIBO – SEP 21 2017

GACKT Official Weibo update. Translation below:

I decided to go to London
to meet my friend.
There’s a common saying that there’s no time like the present,
and I often feel like such a phrase is meant for me.

I’ve grown up quite a bit to put my things together like this
and only bring a change of clothes.
In the past, I would bring only my passport and wallet to the airport,
and decide to play it by ear to just buy clothes at the destination.

I arrived at KL’s airport, got my ticket,
and took the train within the terminal.
I only take trains like this in the airport,
This, too, is valuable time for me
since I have a train phobia.

When I went into the plane,
the sun has already completely set.
I read a book in the plane,
and in the blink of an eye, I was in London.

I went straight to the hotel from there but
it was too early and I couldn’t check in.

The city’s colours changed bit by bit.
While walking in the streets,
I found a public phone that I haven’t seen in a long time.
It’s mysterious how even a public phone booth
can become picturesque only in London.

I noticed that a street near the hotel
had Berluti and Vivian there.
To think that they can be found here… for some reason, I was happy.

I finally found a cafe and went in.
Warm.
Well then…
I guess I’ll go visit my friend’s house after a short break.

Come to think of it,
I wonder how I’ll get there…
I didn’t ask for directions.
Just where is their home…
Is it okay?
Like this.
