SUICA

SUICA
The Suica is a prepaid e-money card for moving around and shopping. There is no more need to buy a ticket from a vending machine. Just touch your Suica to the ticket gate and the fare is automatically deducted from your Suica. The Suica can be used not only for JR East trains, but subways and buses as well.

Where can you use your mobile phone to talk?

Where can you use your mobil...
There are many places you are asked not to talk on the phone.

- Restaurant / Coffee Shop
- In a bus or train
- In a elevator

Basically, people do not want to hear your story. If you need to talk, go somewhere there is nobody listening. It is the good rule.

Randoseru / ランドセル

Randoseru / ランド...
A randoseru (ランドセル) is a firm-sided backpack made of stitched firm leather or leather-like synthetic material, most commonly used in Japan by elementary schoolchildren. Traditionally it is given to a child upon beginning his or her first year of school, whereupon the child uses the same bag until grade 6. The term is a borrowed word from the Dutch "ransel" meaning "backpack", a clue to its origins nearly 200 years ago as used in the Netherlands.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randoseru

I heard Randseru is becoming popular among the adults in Europe ... I do not know if that is true.

Tattoos in Japan

Tattoos in Japan
Tattoo is considered that you are a part of gang organization (or Yakuza) in Japan. There for many establishments (mainly public baths, sauna and Onsen) prohibits people with tattoo from entering. It includes one point tattoo like a little butterfly and flower and even a name except for medical reasons.

If you have one point tattoo, we suggest you buy a sticker to cover your tattoo. You can question like if your culture encourage people to have tattoo, in case of like Polynesian Tattoo. I am sure there will be a lot of talk about this issue as Japan is getting ready for 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
