An instagrammer visiting a konbini in Kyoto would be far more interesting.
(If you want that experience in coastal California, visit a Nijiya Market.)

And written in the first person, about the author's trip to Japan and Greece...? Maybe there's some licensing issue with using their own photos but it's very funny to pair the sentence:
> in a Tokyo 7-Eleven, and I am standing shoulder to shoulder with a dozen tourists, all clutching baskets loaded with the same things: fluffy egg mayo sandwiches, katsu curry buns, matcha Kit Kats and warm cans of Boss coffee pulled from heated shelves.

Nijiya is pretty good by American standards but I still find it lacking compared to actual Japan in many ways.
