the infamous sardine
hentai all the way

I hv been traveling for ages lah...anyway i dunwan to argue wth u & let me chk again. Most of japanese hotels actually welcome xtra pax without any charges. I'm sure I hv chk. I will lodge a complain wth agoda for sure. I'm not new wth them & been using them since early 2000.

if they are so good, why don't they expand??

Hi all sifu's

On Monday I'm taking this journey:
22min connection should be pretty reasonable. But ... am I right in assuming that there wouldn't be enough time to go hunt down an ekiben shop, choose a bento, pay for it, and still navigate to the shinkansen track on time?

Cos it's around dinner time, scared hungry leh. More realistic to just order something on the 2nd train?

sacwoc thanks! I was thinking of hunting down ekiben-ya matsuri or daimaru cos Google say their ekiben is nice, but I guess trying to do that within a 20min time frame while dragging luggage along in an unfamiliar place isn't really feasible.

Good to know there are other shops along the way though, will just hantam a random one that looks nice 👍🏿

wow quite bad eh, thanks for feedback!

about tax refund, do we need to buy above 10,000¥ in a single receipt??

Guys!

Just wondering what is the best option available for me if i want to fly from Sabah to Tokyo? Making plan for a family trip at the moment.

Thanks in advance.

Few of friends already asked me to buy them japanese kitkat that's how i encountered the kitkat boutique lol
But who knows, I might find something interesting there

hello everyone! i have a question to ask on train routes using seishun 18 kippu. i am flying in march 2016.

i am planning my itinerary from osaka to fukuoka. i am using hyperdia to plan. for some reason when i tried to search for trains from yamaguchi to fukuoka, it said no results. i tried from hiroshima to fukuoka also didn't yield result.

is this normal? or does that mean i have to find other places to drop by before going to fukuoka?

ur help/advise is highly appreciated.

my current planning is like this:

osaka (after airport) > okayama (one night) > fukuyama (> 3 hours) > hiroshima (3 nights) > yamaguchi (< 5 hours) > fukuoka (2 nights) >  kyoto > osaka

My original plan was:

26 to 29 April Tokyo
29 to 30 April - Nagoya
30 April to 1 May - Hiroshima
1 to 3 May - Osaka
3 to 5 May - Tokyo
If that is too difficult and risky, I may change to Plan B:

26 to 30 - Tokyo (Disneyland)
30 April to 3 May - Osaka
3 - 5 May - Tokyo

Whats your thoughts?

Is it possible to purchase Tokyo Osaka return Shinkansen ticket before arriving to Japan? If yes, how?

Thank you.

I did this in the UK and some European countries. It worked.
but it must be debit cards lah, CC sure cannot.
Big grocery stores (like those as big as Tesco or Carrefour in M'sia) also cannot use CC/debit cards? 

then where can use CC??

Do u reckon getting those boots like the ones worn by Phua Chu Kang is okay to replace winter boots?
Haha. Just trying to save some cost as going for a budget trip.

Hi guys,

Good day, well 3 more weeks and i'm flying off to Tokyo.
Here i wanna ask some question for those who are experienced travelling to Tokyo.

My friend who is travelling with me would like to buy Samantha Thavasa bag for his gf.
I tried searching and found quite a few of this brand shop in Tokyo.

My question is, other than this brand shop which normally is located in shopping centre, where else can i find branded goods? (eg: places like Ginza? or so, can i get some names of places that you guys can recommend?)

Thank you.

i heard from a friend saying that it's consider rude to wear shorts in japan.

is it true? planning to wear shorts in japan during my trip in 2 weeks time.

I live in Taiwan and its 110V here.

Alternatively the EH-NA56 is 100V-240V if I recall.
