Thanks for visiting us at ispeakjapanese.net! Aaron and I are back with our latest episode of Happy Hour Japan.
A couple of months ago, we received an email from one of our viewers asking us to do an HHJ episode on Japanese toilets. At first we thought it might be a little inappropriate, but we’ve since realized that it’s a really important topic to cover…especially if you plan to visit or live in Japan.
We’ll talk about the high-tech ‘washlet’ toilets as well as the more traditional eastern-style toilets that have terrorized foreigners visitors to Japan for decades!
Every time I visit Japan, I inevitably learn or realize something new about the country and its culture. I recently got back from a trip to Japan and this time around was certainly no exception. In fact, I ran into a very unexpected and unfortunate surprise when I ran out of cash while on my trip. Through this experience, I realized just how important cash is in Japan and the troubles visitors to the country often encounter when trying to access their bank accounts back home!
If you have any future plans to visit the country, I highly recommend you watch this episode!
Hey everyone! Sorry for not posting an episode for so long!
We got such a great response on our last video, we decided to make back to back episodes on travel! In this episode, we cover some of our personal tips for finding good deals on airfare, discuss more on places to stay, and each reveal our favorite season to visit Japan.
BONUS!! In this episode we welcome our first guest to Happy Hour Japan, Rob!
In this episode, we’ve taken a suggestion from one of our viewers (Ari) and will talk about traveling to Japan. There’s no way we could discuss everything we want to cover on this topic in a single episode, so think of this as part 1 of an ongoing series!
This time we’ll focus on onsen (Japanese hot springs), trains, and a tip on saving money on hotels. Enjoy!
