Where are you in Osaka? I taught for a while at the Honda automotive school and at the chioda kominkan. Of course, we use to take the train out to party a bit, too.

Interesting website. I'll have to check it out more, some time soon. What do you like about Osaka?

I lived in Wakayama-ken for three years. In that time I think I went just about everywhere in the Kii-hanto (Osaka, Wakayama, Nara and Mie). I took two trips to Shikoku and a few days in Hokkaido. I went to Tokyo for two days and didn't like it. I enjoyed the countryside.
Tokyo, Osaka, Yokohama, Yokosuka, Kamakura, Fukuoka, Saga, Nagasaki, Sasebo, Hiaki, Huis ten Bosch, Bepu, Disaifu, Chikushi, KitaKyushu, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa.

I lived in Japan for seven years, visited regularly afterward, and I live there part-time again now.

I've been to Fukuoka, Hiroshima, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Kanazawa, Tokyo, all over the Chubu, Kanto and Tohoku regions, and various places in Hokkaido. I've been on loads of onsen trips, unfortunately I get the geography all mixed up now but mostly in Nagano, Gunma, Tochigi, Ibaraki and Niigata. My house is in Saitama.

Weak points: Never been to Shikoku or Okinawa, nor Wakayama, nor anyplace in the San'yo and San'in areas.
