Hope you enjoy the trip. I went to Nagoya for 2 weeks and spent 1 weekend in Kyoto back in 2004

Never been back. But I'd like to.

You don't really need Japanese, especially in Tokyo. You'll be fine.

Fun fact: During WW2 Japan planned an invasion of Australia that ultimately never occurred

They did not comprehend Australia at all and their plans included building Prefectures in the middle of the desert.

Scouts landed on the shore to do reconnaissance for Australian military bases and after traveling in 2 different directions for 2 days, found nothing

Australia where aware of this potential invasion and their planned response if Japan invaded? Let them have it. Fuck off back to Brisbane, reinforce it. We got the water, we got the roads, enjoy wasting your resources in the middle of nothing Jack.

^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

As you fly. Brush up on Japanese etiquette. Japan is all about showing respect. Doing that will get you far there.

It will be fine --- as long as you do not view the social media channel where they post videos of idiot tourists.

Been twice, still easily my favorite place I've been.

Konnichiwa = Hello
Ohaiyo = Good morning
Sumimasen = i'm sorry/excuse me
Arigato gozaimas = thank you very much

That, plus slight bows of your head when thanking folks will get you through 99% of your interactions, and you probably already know some of them

Japan will be a wild culture shock for you coming from australia, I think. Instead of strangers being annoyingly curious and talkative towards you youre going to be slightly bewildered by how much people go out of their way to mind their own business.

Tonight is my last night in Japan. It has been an amazing holiday.
The Nintendo Museum was incredible and Super Nintendo World was fun. I don't think I ever need to go to another theme park though. It was extremely crowded.

I bought plenty of stuff to take home, plus gifts for family

When I get home, I will be editing together a vlog. I haven't been getting footage of a lot of stuff I have been doing

Glad you had fun!

You're probably gonna get the post holiday blues. I know I did when I first visited Japan back in 2019.
