    Gaijin
     
  2. Currently saving the monies for Japan 2016 hopefully
     
  3. Maid cafe is so awesome. I want to try visiting one :-(
     
  4. I love Japan?besides their problems with children... Cough cough
     
  5. Almost everything is expensive in japan. If youre an asian it would really be too expensive for you to go to japan but if youre an american or european then theres no problem at all.
    Its true almost everywhere youll find vending machines, vending machines that sell umbrellas, liquor, ice cream and all. You can find almost everything in the convenience stores. In japan you should visit their shrines, bath house, hotsprings, and museums. Accommodation is cheaper outside tokyo. Public transpo is very convenient. Try Karaoke in japan. Seafood and ramen everywhere.

    Cons
    You'll have a hard time finding trash cans
    Many japanese tend to discriminate foreigners
     
  6. Thanks Jihi and London!

    I did heard that August there is very humid... I'll go earlier, I actually plan to stay there very long... It is my dream to live there but it'll be step by step.

    I am learning on my own the language and writings. So far, I learn quickly and know the minimum basics! I work night shift so I pass my time learning!

    Thanks again!
     
  7. I heard they were actually helpful, I doubt I'll see too much hate. I heard they like to photobomb too xP
     
  8. They don't let people take pictures at maid cafés for privacy reasons.
     
  9. Hmm depends on which. Walking around you get approached by maids who are advertising their cafés, and you follow them to wherever the café is. Some allow you to take photographs if you spend certain quantities of money. The particular one I went to I was not treated so kindly. However I did meet a few cosplayers in the café who stopped in. The maid I spoke to said she wouldn't allow photos of herself but hinted if I spent more money I could. It wasn't necessarily prohibited.
     
  10. I've been there. Tokyo and most places in it are primarily open at night. Due to most people work mornings and afternoons. The banners above door way's usually mean open. One place I recommend check out is aeon mall. Also capsule hotels it's like 10 usd a night and a fun experience. English books are very rare . I only found one place and it was in a red light district
     
  11. It looks colourful  and confusing...
     
  12. Combing your hair in public is disrespectful for them
