A Tourist’s Stomach | Hokuou Joshi : A Swedish Girl’s Life in Japan Volume 1, Chapter 4 (62)
Convenience store onigiri are way too handy! Why is it that Japanese girls can call just about anything “cute?” The guys at host bars are so hot, they’re like real-life anime characters! These are only some of the mysteries Swedish manga artist Åsa Ekström discovers in this journal comic about her journey from Scandinavia to Japan, which is jam-packed with surprises and laughs! >>> Chapter 4: Back Home in Sweden (62)「A Tourist’s Stomach」
A Tourist’s Stomach


Åsa’s comment
These days, every time I go home to Sweden, my stomach rebels against me. I’ve thought a lot about why and decided it might be all the dairy. Sweden’s a dairy culture, but maybe eating Japanese cuisine made me lactose intolerant?
