I get it, I really do. And I plan to do the exact same when I visit in the summer. I dont have the same shoes Bettel has, but I do intend to wear nicer semi-formal looking shoes that I'm %100 sure will make my feet uncomfortable after a prolonged amount of time walking.
I got some nice walking shoes that I know aren’t stylish enough for when I got to Japan, but gosh darn I will take the psychic damage so I don’t roll a ankle and end up at a hospital abroad. If only my body was sturdy enough to be dripped out 24/7.
