I'm about to be a foreigner in Japan in about a week. I'm a Korean American who's going off to Japan for two weeks on vacation. Only problem is I don't know anyone there, I don't speak Japanese (I've been learning Hiragana but realized it wouldn't help me much cause all the street signs and signs of cities are in Kanji...), and I'm going alone. I was wondering if someone would be willing to hang out with me (preferably Japanese). I'm thinking about heading out to Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, and Sapporo. Let me know and thanks for any help.
I wish I could be with you and showing you around in Tokyo as I live in Tokyo.
But unfortunately I am back home which is near Nagoya, 2hrs away from Tokyo on a bullet train.
I hope you have a good time in Japan.
Just for curiousty, what brought you to Japan??
and please share your thoughts of visiting Japan!
If you'd like to see what I've thought about my trip, you can go to my latest diary entries and take a look. I've met many people and had a great time. Sorry I couldn't get to know you in Japan~
