from Miyajima

Someone said in the U.S. you have cotton swabs to clean ears,
but not ear sticks that are available here.
the ones that have a scoop on the tip.

here,
somehow any tourist spots you go to, they seem to sell ear sticks of this type as a souvenir, sometimes featuring whatever is peculiar to the place.


this is from Miyajima, near Hiroshima.
