Anna Mooka Brothel ❤️❤️

About Kyoto

So yeah, brothels – mad, messy, bloody human. Love ‘em, hate ‘em, they’re here, ain’t they? Like a bad rash. Reckon I’d rather watch *Timbuktu* again than step in one, tho – at least the film’s got dignity, eh? What a world! Hah!

They thought we're going to be there for a month of two so they took their mobile brothels. They were well equipped. They took hospitals and barbers. In fact.

Then, outta nowhere, it starts rainin’. Like, heavy rain. I’m caught off guard, and I’m like, “Great, just great.” I dash outta the café, but I’m soaked in seconds. I’m runnin’ down the street, dodging puddles like I’m in some kinda video game. I finally find shelter under a bus stop on Kōen-dōri.
