Life Tips : Portable Umbrella Stand while commuting

Image
Sometimes while in the train on a rainy day, you want to read a book or use your smart device but one of your hands is occupied having to hold an umbrella. Haven't you experienced such a dilemma ? Well, good news !  I found this new product in the web called "Settle a vous "! Accordingly,  it was based on an idea by a 60 year old housewife who was annoyed with such inconvenience while commuting. You may buy it at Tokyu Hands or Loft or online for 1,200 yen (excluding tax): The blog below describes this in Japanese: http://www.shin-shouhin.com/2014/06/15/setlle-a-vous/ Click here for their FB Page .

My mom and my brother supported me on day-to-day basis and I was very lucky to have them by my side during the visiting hours.  The rest of my relatives all over the world sent their love and prayers.  But if you have no family around- th...
