This episodes starts with me landing in Tokyo's Narita Airport, my first time ever in Japan! I then take the Skyliner bullet train over to Ueno station where my hostel is closely located to. After checking out my capsule hotel I head out for my first bowl of Ramen.
Day two began with me heading to breakfast at the local 7-Eleven convenience store. Following that, I took a stroll towards Akihabara Electric Town which I thought was incredible! The Namco Arcade was a highlight for me. During my time in Akihabara I noticed the annual Tokyo city marathon was taking place which was a sight to see.
It was then time to take the Tokyo metro to Tokyo central station in where I tried for at least 45 minutes to find the Imperial Palace. It took this long due to many subway exits being strictly controlled by police and not allowing the public through! Eventually I found it, walked around the beautiful Imperial Gardens before hitting a local cafe for a spot of lunch, pork katsu curry.
After lunch, I grabbed a coffee at Starbucks but not before I ran into a Tokyo pharmacy to pickup some cream for my hands. All ago towards the vibrant district of Shinjuku. I was elated walking around the streets of Shinjuku, truly a trendy cyberpunk vibe. I almost got tricked for the second time during the video at the currency exchange there but instead managed to find one that was quite a reasonable exchange rate! Later, I grabbed a quick bowl of soba noodles before getting back to my capsule hotel for a good night's rest.

I traveled to Japan twice last year solo...Only ever been to Greece (twice) which was organised and sorted by late partner...I spent 3 weeks in Japan in Jan 23 and 2 weeks in late Nov early Dec...I stayed in Tokyo and then traveled as far south as Kagoshima..and stopped of at Kumamoto, Hiroshima, Osaka and Kyoto on my way back to Tokyo...I pretty much walked everywhere unless using the Shinkansen between stays...I dont speak a word of Japanese and had never booked a trip in my life. (56 in a few weeks)...I did use the trains abit more on the second trip...As I stayed in the Yokohama and Tokyo area. I loved Japan...And wish I could return...But I truly wish I could of had my late partner with me...She would have loved it also.

Your appreciation and curiosity for Japan is infectious. Good to watch someone so much in aww and excited for the country enjoy their time there. Japan is the cleanest and safest country I've ever been. People are polite and dedicated. Have a great trip.

I have to say, this is the most real vlog I've ever seen. No annoying music like most travellers use. Instead you fill it with live talking and impressions. There were lots of interesting thoughts popping up like, do the japanese realise how cool their cities really are etc.

The world can be roughly divided into two parts. It is Japan and other countries. I stayed in Japan for a few weeks, but every day was so beautiful and wonderful and fulfilling that I had the day to return home in no time. After a few days, I had very mixed feelings. Why didn't my country become like Japan?

When traveling to Japan, just saying a few words such as greeting ``Konnichiwa'' and thanking someone ``Thank you very much'' will make the other person happy. Many Japanese people do not speak English.

There are many places in Japan where you are not allowed to take pictures. It is written at the entrance.

Man broke every Japanese cultural unwritten rule in one video ๐ thatโs one way to learn a new culture I suppose. Still well mannered and a good lad that respects the local way of life unlike many we have seen. Good video. Keep it up!
