hey guys....

just want to ask about forex.

USD is depreciating a lot against MYR, while JPY is depreciating lesser against MYR....

Will i get more if i change my MYR into USD, then go Kyoto and change into JPY ?
*
USD > JPN > KRW are fix rate
No matter how economy of world change. The rate are fix since World War 2. Because Japan & Korea are US little bro.
Japan & Korean Currency are control by US

1 USD = 100 Yen Since 1945 // 1 USD = 1000 Won since 1953

If you used MYR to USD to JPN...you losing alot money.

i read in wiki, the fix rate been cancel in year 1971
*
Itu tipu punya. It still control by US
Because until today 2018 Rate still 1 USD = 100 Yen // 1000 Won

Japan and Korean citizen already used to it already, plus alot american soldier inside this 2 country, easy for them.
American soldier inside Japan / Korean are pay by USD as salaries. So those american know 1 bowl of Ramen (1000 Yen) = 10 USD


Japanese also like going Hawaii. With this fix rate, very easy for them. 100,000 Yen = 1000 USD

Bro, got diff lah haha.

Otherwise, 100yen is still 3.87 if follow us but Today 100yen is 3.55
*
3.55 or 3.87
If you go exchange rate store at Japan...1 USD still 100 Yen

They also need profit....either profit more or less only.

Yo guys,

i still planning my trip. I will arrive KIX - Osaka - Tokyo - Narita - Malaysia.

It seems that flying from KIX to Narita seems more budget than using train.
Flying is around RM400 for 2 pax while train for 2 pax one way is around RM900.

Did i miss something.

Those who stay at Airbnbs, how the overall cleanliness?
Any hotels within RM200 budget to recommend for Tokyo?

Thanks.
*
You can't find Rm200 hotel in Tokyo. Even Love hotel also starting Rm300 above.

RM200 can. But 1 hour 30 minute away from Tokyo city can get .

Hmmmm my dilemma... likely to do Kawaguchi and I want it to be relaxing. But there's so much more to do Hakone if I look at it, and I really want to visit the Little Prince Museum. Probably should splurge a little to cover both Hakone and Kawaguchiko mega_shok.gif
*
Buy Fuji Hakone Pass
cover both and save alot money.

Current Snow monster are closed due to ashes injured some skiers.

From news, more than 20,000 people cancel thier room reservation on those ski resort due to volcano ashes.

Current are Level 2 restriction. Once Reach Level 3, Entire Zao mountain will be restricted.

Hmmm I thought I replied liao but I guess I might have used inappropriate words and kena delete lol.
Wondering where I should put my Plan B instead.
Problem is JR East Tohoku Pass already bought, and JTB charges 20% cancellation fee.
Using this pass ... I guess the other famous ski area in Tohoku is Appi Kogen but it's sooooo far away almost near Aomori.
Alternately just cancel the Tohoku Pass, buy Nagano-Niigata instead, and go Nozawa Onsen / Hakuba?
*
Go Ginzan Onsen
One of my fav onsen relax spot.

Can try 治郎丸
This is one of my fav restaurant during my stay at Tokyo. I everyday have to take Seibu Train from Seibu Shinjuku Station.
Delicious grill meat plus restraurant dont have seat...standing grill meat. very fun & full of memory biggrin.gif


QUOTE(sweet_pez @ Feb 7 2018, 09:02 AM)
You've got everything down~ Tokyo Station is nearby Imperial Palace - within walking distance. If you're done early, can always consider dropping by. Optionally,

In Asakusa, the must-eat for me is 天丼 (tendon) in Daikokuya 大黒屋. Just a recommendation.
*
For me, Asakusa must eat food are メンチカツ (Menchi Katsu)

Jiromaru you got visit their Akihabara outlet before? That one seems more convenient for me to late night jiak after maricar.
*
Didn't try Akihabara outlet before. Quality should be very similar.
Seibu Shinjuku Station branch are all my memory. Uni + Working at Japan period time.
After dinner then take Seibu Shinjuku Line balik.


Asakusa famous Menchi Katsu shop called 浅草メンチ
Cheap + delicious. This snack are my Asakusa No.1 food list.

A quick question, other than kyoto hiroshima tokyo and hokkaido any non touristy places with more ancient atmosphere? I know kyoto but compared i went there on year 2014 its getting more crowded. This time for 4th time i prefer more laid back less crowd place. Any suggestion? Im going to travel alone so shirakawago would be off the list as the guesthouse there requires 2 pax
