Japan is an amazing country with a lot of pride and integrity. With that, they try to hide their social issues like disability, homelessness and suicide.
I think I’m proud of myself for having the guts to take this. Pretty much speaks for itself.
This lovely lady was on my bullet train from Tokyo to Osaka, heading towards Hiroshima. She noticed my horrible horrible Japanese in asking for a beer and some food, laughed, then started to talk to me in really decent English. She even helped me at Osaka for my next train.
Worst part is that I didn’t ask her name.
It doesn’t matter the job, the Japanese always seem to do it to the best of their ability with no complaints. Always professional. They also do a good uniform.
These are the ticket inspectors for the shinkansen.
People watching while standing at crossings was one of my favourite things. Everyone stopped still for a few minutes in a fast-paced city.
This sums up pets in Japan pretty well, I think. The owner was beyond delighted that I asked to take a picture of her dog.
I only had one person on my airport express train from Narita to get excited with, even if she didn’t know about it.
