![]() I had a walk around the airport as I was waiting for the van to take me to Kyoto and omg, it’s better than all my dreams! Everything is so different and cute, and having Japanese writings everywhere around me is so awesome considering back home I am struggling to find any anywhere in order to practice my reading… And the food – omg – it’s food paradise!! Everything looks amazing and I just want to try it aaaaall!!! But it’s ok, I kept my cool (haha) and didn’t buy anything as I wasn’t hungry and know I will have many occasions to try a lot of all those things… □ Between the guy who was so sorry and so thankful for me letting him check my suitcase (not like I really had the choice), to the woman bringing the whole shop to help me find a plug adaptor (ok I’m exaggerating a little) – everyone so far has been so warm and awesome with me! Oh, and also, even if I was told the Japanese were really punctual, I was still quite shocked when the post office that was supposed to open at 9 am actually had their door open at 9:00 and 0 seconds with 3 people exclaiming the Japanese version of “Hello, how may I help you?” within seconds of that. So yes, Japan is as hilarious as the internet let us think: the signs are all made with cute little drawings, there is a drink called “sweat”, and even airport toilets have loads of funny buttons to play with:Īlso the people are as kind and caring as I have been told – more, in fact. ![]() Turns out, I didn’t actually sleep in the plane, and the day was barely starting in Japan at the moment I arrived (7:00am) – long day ahead!īut my excitement was more efficient than any coffee one can possibly drink, so I went ahead with that stupid smile still not leaving my face (not sure if the locals have been looking at me (quite intensely sometimes) a lot because of that or because I am a strange bright blond blue eyed girl (and “tall” for Japanese standards with that, according to my host mother)… Probably both!).
