Im planning on going to Japan in October. I have never been before. My biggest concern is the language barrier, but I hear from people its not that much of an issue.

Not that many people speak english, or they choose not to. You can have some slightly awkward scenarios where a waiter will rattle off a bunch of things in japanese to you and you have to try and figure out from context what they mean.

But travelling has never been easier thanks to tech. You can instantly translate what they say/what you say into completely coherent english. Even better, on google translate you can take a picture of anything and it will translate it for you in the picture. It works really well.

A lot of places have english menus.
