This is sadly the last post I will be writing from Japan. I think I’ve written everything about how I feel, so I’ll end with this post as I ended in 2007. By making a list of “YKYBIJW”.

You Know You’ve Been In Japan When…

…walking more than 500 meters for a good restaurant is outrageous.

…squeezing yourself into a tiny tube with thousands of other people, completely unable to move, is just a way to get somewhere in the morning.

…you think service is terrible if personnel isn’t smiling and giving you their full attention at all times.

…it’s strange that 2 hours on a train doesn’t bring you to a completely different landscape.

…having 24 square meters to live on is pretty damn decent.

…you duck through doorways by reflex.

And finally I’ll leave you with a video, it’s a compilation of all the material I had on my computer, taken throughout the year.

Until next time! I love you Japan.
