Hi Meg, when I was in Japan I wasn't able to maximize the use of my 72 hr unli subway train ticket. I was just guessing if the subway exit/entry would accept or reject my tcket. I'm aware that they're only for Metro and Toei Lines but is there more easy way to tell? Thanku so much for your vids! đ„°
You are the only channel that says the Japanese phrases slowly enough for me to understand how to say them myself.
Thank you.
Good it helped you
My parents and I are coming to Japan on May 10th. This will be our very first time! I'm so excited! This might be my once in a lifetime trip. I've saved for years
Oh wow!!! Have a lovely trip!
@@MegLog_JAPAN thank you!
My husband and I are bringing his mum home to see where she/ mum/her mums family is from in just about a month! đ
She was born in Uenohara Japan in 1947 and left when she was a baby to America. Sheâs never been back.
Shes 77 years old and she is still so strong and amazing and ready for this big trip!
Thank you for your video.
I want to make our mom happy and your video is very helpful.
Arigatou gozaimasu đđđđđđđđ
Good luck with you!
Sounds like special and amazing trip!
I've learned a lot while traveling in Japan đ They follow rules, they respect each other, especially theyre so mundful of others, that's why they have nicest things đđœ japan inspires me to improve myself day by day in my own country đ”đ
Change really starts with each one of us đŻ thanku Japan!!! Matane! đ
Arigato!! Come again!
@@MegLog_JAPAN i will go back đ arigatou gozaimasu đ„đ
Something else about restaurants is that the staff might sound rude when they are speaking English. But there just trying their best
Yes, I agree with it.
I visited Japan with a tour group in 2017. The people are very polite and everything is so clean. In the restroom there are no hand dryers so need to take a small hand towel with you. Also a few small bags to put your trash in as there are no bins. Take your bags back to your accommodation. I recommend slip on shoes to wear as entering shrines, temples, castles etc. you have to keep on removing your shoes.
Thank you for making this educational video. We are Australians visiting Japan for a month, visiting many areas. We watch what the locals do and try to follow suit. Yesterday at a large food court in Matsumoto we weren't sure where to take our trays but soon enough saw what locals were doing and copied them.
I will be in Japan this August! With regards to trash bags, may I bring my own trash bags if they are small? I am looking forward to this vacation very much!
Very useful information thanks
Good recommendations!
Nice info thank youâ€
Thank you for this video, very informative and quick and clear
Thank you for helping to make tourism easy for us!
Wow this is a great video!
Very informative đ
Thank you for your videođ
We should definitely know those things before coming to Japan!
Thank you!
I am planning a trip to Japan this summer with my son. I am grateful for youtubers such as MegLog. Thank you! One of our excursions is to take the Shankansen from Nagasaki through Hiroshima to finally get to Osaka. When is the reservation of seating occur? Immediately after going through the gate using an IC card? Anyway, thank you! Arigato!
Japan is the one place I want to visitâŠâ©

Looks like I'm going to say lots of 'Sumimasen' when I visit Japan. đ

Another to add to the list if you are used to food served in courses, such as starters then main, or especially when ordering individual meals as a group. It was my experience at the sit-down restaurants we went to that food arrived "as it's cooked" rather than "everyone's meal at the same time." I ordered a sashimi dish and baked fish with broth, while the 2 others with me ordered steaks. Both my dishes arrived before the other dishes and I had plenty of time to eat. Something to keep in mind I suppose, that depending on where you eat (unless it is explicitly a course menu) you may want to consider your order as dishes to be shared and to order a bit of everything rather than "2 of us will have the same meal".
Coming from North America it seems we are streamed thru Narita
I've been to Kansai area twice and will be back in two months. I cannot walk very well and often trip over the guide blocks. I have to be very careful! đ„Ž
The young woman in the video speaks excellent English. I hope to learn how to speak Japanese and visit Japan because I admire the Japanese people and their society.
Flying into Narita may not be a mistake. That was a mistake on your part. Not getting an IC card is another mistake you made. If you do not ride the trains very much, it is cheaper to purchase tickets individually. Physical IC cards have a non refundable deposit, also some trains you cannot use an IC card.
ăăżăŸăă!
Got it, thanks.
How much cash you recommend to exchange from USD to Yen
I changed 300$ for 2 weeks as a couple. Mainly I could pay by card. Sometimes not. Now I am back in Germany and have still 6000„ in cash

Superb video! Yes about carrying s small plastic bag and disposing trash contents at your hotel. It is not a difficulty and Japanese do this, disposing of at home. Don't litter. Don't go to Japan to just be another predatory, shallow "influencer." Learn about the culture and appreciate it. And be quiet on trains! It's a long way to fly with no preparedness or sense of the culture.
Well said
Thank you!

Do you pronounce the "u" in Desu though? Seems strange?
De 㧠su ăăde and su are "letters" each has it's own sound, while, a, i, u, e, & o are separate as well.
I prefer yokuska
I thought Japan is a country with extremely honest people!
Yes, it depends on people

Some of the restaurants don't accept foreigners. The reason behind this is because they always have problem in communicating in English. Don't think that they are being rude.

Great vidsâŠ.
Can you speak a little slower in the future?âđ
To many rules for
my taste. Thank you but no thank you.đ
Being to japan , rude attitude in service & disappointed .
If you canât do something as simple as be friendly and smile to a customer. Itâs no wonder you economy is in such a terrible condition.
Oh, my goodness!!!!!!! Wasn't expecting that, but it's food for thought.
