Forums General Chit-Chat I'm finally going to Japan!

Donator — She/her Posted 6 years ago ( 2018/03/5 19:15:43 )

Yes I finally am able to go!
For those of you that don't know, I'm fluent in Japanese, and it was my major in school. I have never been able to go to Japan before, even though I've had about 5-6 opportunities in the past. They all few through either because I was too young, I didn't have enough money, family problems, and work. Now, finally, I booked a flight to Japan and I'm going!!

There are so many things that I want to do. I'm going to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto (that one only for a day) and Fukuoka. If you guys have any tips, or recommendations please let me know! I understand the culture well, but everyone loves knowing about the best shops, restaurants and places to see!

    @Totalanimefan: That is fantastic that you are finally getting the chance to go, I'm excited for you!
    I'm jealous of all the yummy food you'll get to eat and all the sights you'll get to see.
    You'll have to take many, many pictures and share them with us when you come back.

@Luffer Nutter: I think I'm going to be there too late for them. They bloom in late April.
@llyr: Thank you! I've been wanting this for like 13 years lol
I'm going to enjoy the food and the sights. I hope that I won't be too tired/jet lagged while I'm there. I will share updates with you guys. ^^

    @Totalanimefan: Hopefully the jet lag will only last a day or two so that you can use the rest of your time there to fully enjoy yourself.

@Luffer Nutter: Yeah they are only around for like 2-3 weeks.
@llyr: Yes I hope so too. It's just that sometimes when I'm super, super too tired I actually can't get my body to fall asleep. It happened one time when I went to England overnight from Florida. It sucked.

@vengeance: Thanks! Have you been before? I want to take a day trip to Kyoto and see all the famous things, which includes the bamboo forest. There are bus tours that do that.
And when I'm in Tokyo I'm going to all the major parts. I'm probably going to be in Tokyo for 5 days.

@vengeance: Which city is that Shrine in?

Donator Posted 6 years ago ( 2018/03/6 17:28:44 )

@Totalanimefan: It is on the island of Itsukushima ((popularly known as Miyajima). And it is in the city Hatsukaichi. It is on the Unesco World Heritage List.

@Luffer Nutter: I just looked it up when the Sakura season is. It's also about the same time for where I live in CA, and in DC. (We don't have a lot of Sakura trees, but we do have a few)
