    Tokyo/Japan needs 4 trips. 2+ weeks each.
    1 trip for each season.
    Different weather
    Different vibe/themes
    Different seasonal foods - the flavor of the foods changes with the season I can’t explain it.

    I have not watched your videos in a bit.... I will have to go back and see where I stopped. Japan is very cool. My sister's best friend growing up went to Japan every few years. Her Father was from the US but mom was born and raised in Japan. I believe they married in late 1960s or eary 1970s. So their Daughter went back to Japan every 3 to 4 years.

    As far as tipping, I lived in China for 8 years and they didn’t accept tipping. It was included in the regular bill. They consider it to be offensive. What about the Philippines? Do you tip there? I’m home now in Michigan, USA, the tipping is expensive and even for over the counter buys, they try to get you to tip. Crazy! Thanks for all your wonderful videos!

    i'm amazed that Japan finds tipping offensive. Here in California it's expected to tip at least 20%, used to be that 15% was the normal tipping when eating out. At a local Mexican restaurant there are 3 tipping jars, 1- waitress, 2- cook, and 3- restaurant. I usually only put $1 per jar.

    Hmm HSR , is it worth it ?

    @franksmith3602 Месяц назад +3

    100%......right.... NO TIPPING, the reason a tip is a insult. And the Japanese see a tip as a mega insult...to the point of been shamed..... This is why.... The Honor code of the server Industry,.....the servers are all ready getting paid... They are paid to serve you. To make you happy. To make sure in a restaurant you receive the most wonderful time. And it is the ( Honor to be able to share and be there for you.)... A tip..... Insults them...because it's like telling them they did a bad job... serving you. I tipped one time, the girl chased me down....blocks away crying, apologize ING....for not doing her job. Japan, unwritten customs.....run deep. And you don't break them.. if you on a train or bus, and it is packed, and a old lady, needs a seat...( Never offer the elderly your seat thinking your been polite..mega wrong....) In JAPAN GIVING UP YOUR SEAT IS A INSULT TO THE ELDERY. YOUR TELLING THEM THERE WORTHLESS. I'm not joking. If you do get up, to let a elderly Japanese person sit down....you must get up and leave that train car.... You can how ever.....smash to the left or right....make room.... Let them, sit.....then get up...they save face then.... But never look any Japanese in the face when traveling,... It is there space, look pass them... Look up.... Do not look down. Even when saying thank you..... Face the person. Tilt your head....out of respect to them. I've been going and living in Japan......back to the 1960s,.....
    I've watched Japan...... grow up........ And, you never break the rules....
    Domie, guy, jean.....say it fast.....( It means......stupid America.)...I heard it a lot till I learned..... social rules.... And any time to break the ice.... In meeting Japanese...,do it by trying to speak there language to them.....FACEING them....
    Great video..... I'm missing my house in Tokyo.....thanks.
