>>242 >how much it cost to get a travel ticket? Depends where you are from and the time of the year. Expect between 700 to 1200 USD for a round-trip in a good scenario I paid well over 1000€ just to go to Japan from Europe, but bear in mind this was before tourism was allowed and I didn't book with much of an advance >what level of japanese should I know? Although just relying on English will not get you very far, Japanese people are used to tourists, especially in big cities like Tokyo, and even if they only speak japanese, they will try to help you as they can. That being said, I advise you to know some basic expressions before hand, such as "ありがとうございます", "すみません", ... and to always have a translator app ready, to scan text and such >how to get internet there There are many companies providing SIM cards. Some even include a phone to use as a hotspot (since some phones outside Japan don't deal well with Japanese SIMs) and you can pick it up straight from the airport, in the provider counter There are also many places, such as metro stations, convenience stores, shopping malls, ... etc, that have public hotspots >how to find an hotel or sharehouse? I'd say you can rely on the usual Booking.com and Airbnb >how to have a card for trains? You can get a PASMO/Suica card. Check their websites for better information https://www.pasmo.co.jp/visitors/en/ https://www.jreast.co.jp/multi/en/welcomesuica/welcomesuica.html >how to exchange money in japan? The same you exchange it anywhere else in the world, you can go to an Exchange Center or withdraw at an international ATM (7-Eleven Bank usually works) I recommend getting a Revolut card and exchanging the money to Yen before hand There are also some machines that you can insert money and it will exchange for you I hope this was insightful anon. If you have any more questions shoot Do you already have something in mind? Like places in Japan you'd like to visit and when?

>>245 I don't plan to go to japan right now . but I wish I would move there for at least 1 year so I can explore all the country and do differents activities during differents seasons. The must have, would be me finding a school that let me study in japan so I can stay much longer in the country Let's say I'm in japan right now, what is there to do? >going in a japanese restaurant and trying japanese good >going into a maid cafe >into a convenience store >a temple >the city >the countryside >the nightlife >buying souvenirs >entering manga cafe >going into shops (gaming, manga,etc...)>going to onsen >doing activites (?) >vistibg castles >visting the mount fuji >visiting the nature/forest >going to the beach >skiing in japan? >going to arcade games center >trying japanese fastfood this is all I can think of for now, on what to do in japan. of course doing all of this will take time and for this Ineed to stay much longer in japan. but when you think about it there's not so much to do in japan, so I'll ask you: WHAT should I do in japan? Now let do a simulation: let's say I'm going in japan this autumn for two weeks. I'll be staying in tokyo and maybe going to kyoto and/or going to the countryside I need >the ticket for flight (from europe to japan) >a place in tokyo where to sleep/stay >wifi >ticket to take the train and bus >budget for two weeks to spend there how much will it cost? Have you ever been to japan? if yes how was it? can you share you experience with us, please?

>>248 I need answer please

>>248 >Let's say I'm in japan right now, what is there to do? I spent 3 weeks in Japan in 2015, it was great. My hotel was in Tokyo (Asakusa), did 1 day trips to Kyoto and Hiroshima. One day to visit Hiroshima was enough imo, but should've spent more time in Kyoto. I could've spent the whole 3 weeks in Tokyo alone easily without getting bored, you will always find interesting places to go. Tokyo is huge, visiting the different parts of the town and their sights alone will take you several days. Generally it kinda depends what you are into I guess? You could probably spend the whole trip just visiting temples and shit for example, I spent several days in akihabara buying weebshit and playing games at the arcades. >wifi I only used wifi in the hotel to plan the following days trip and when I had to check something on the go I went to a mcdonalds or starbucks for free wifi lol. But there exist prepaid cards for foreigners if you need internet. >how much will it cost? I went in 2015 and spent around 3000€ total for 20days, no idea how expensive it is today.

>>459 >3000 bucks wasn't that much. must be 4000 for 20 days nowdays

>>461 or even 5000-6000 bucks
