Hello Japan V 8!!

Going to Japan this month? Dont forget to grab a Yokoso SIM before you leave. Best value for money and dont waste your precious holiday time looking for data sim cards.

Happy Hols and stay safe!

Checking in. I don't usually travel - but this time I choose to solo in Japan. Osaka, Kyoto, Hakone, Tokyo, Nikko in autumn (and winter). very fantastic!

1. Love the people - very friendly & helpful
2. Love the view - Mt fuji, Snow mountain, Kinugawa Onsen, autumn leaves
3. Hate - not having rubbish bins!

this shouldn't be here again +again.

eye-ing at japan for upcoming holiday trip...
but seeing the transportation part make me so confusing

True. We should however get a list of internet sims in Japan up...

I used So-Net by Sony. Pretty easy and cheap. I got 1GB for 3000Y. Can get 3GB for 5000Y. Best thing - 30 days validity which means you're probably covered.

I have the same feeling before I go, but after going I think it's easy! Mostly I used google maps to get the best route. Then buy subway/bus passes if you're in city. Depends on where you go some passes are bargain but most arn't.

At Japan. Your Pocket , backpack , hand carry bag are your rubbish bin. Everyone at Japan do this way. They keep inside pocket until reach office / home then only dispose it accordingly recycle or non recycle.

Haha yeah. Apparently it's because terrorist attack. I find that mildly annoying but yeah.

Not because terrorist attack. Even 20 years ago I when to Japan until today still the same. Japanese will automatic put thier rubbish in thier pocket. Basically everyone do this way , so Japan Govt no need put alot rubbish bin around City area.

How to get the So-Net? At Japan airport?

it's not that bad lah. i'm assuming you looking at tokyo metro/train map and confused by all the lines? in the end just pakai google maps or hyperdia to search where you want to go, easy easy only.

Dec tips of the Months:

If you plan to see Sakura Cherry Blossom at Kyoto or Tokyo then you are really normal as others. This month tips I giving you another spot for Sakura Blossom. Blow you GF // Wife // Friends away and making them thinks you are so special . This also my personal favorite spot to see Sakura.

Beside See Sakura ; also can visiting Samurai houses.

Ok, Lets go to Tohoku Region Akita Province. A Village call Kakunodate A.K.A Little Kyoto

3 hour Akita Shinkansen Ride from Tokyo Station to Kakunodate Station.

These are really beautiful
I hope year 2017 can visit this place.

I got it from KIX, but there's a list below.

one minor point, make sure you know check which device doesnt work. Also you'll need to do some APN setting, so make sure you familiarize with your phone before going (else you dont have internet to help you!)

can buy from vending machine which I think it's cool
