JAPAN
Country Overview:
“Come for the culture, stay for the food, and experience everything Japan has to offer”
After knowing a Canadian-born-Chinese girl in Beijing for a few weeks, we decided it would be a good idea to visit Japan together for 2 weeks in December 2017, planning to spend Christmas and New Year’s in Tokyo. The city was amazing, the relationship, however, not so much.

One thing I’ve noticed in Tokyo is the pride people take in their work. It started at the airport when a guy loaded all our bags onto the transit bus with a smiling face. People working at 7/11 are polite and very courteous, and construction workers on the street always smile as they let pedestrians pass by. Maybe it’s just noticeable here because people in Beijing don’t smile or show enthusiasm very often
