Salut Sophie !

Je comprends bien les sentiments de ta mère. Mais en même temps, je serais plus inquiété si ma fille voyageait avec un étranger de l'Internet que si elle voyageait toute seule. Le Japon c'est un pays très sûr. Même les adolescents d'autres pays peuvent sans risque voyager seuls.

Je dois parler à ta mère, peut-être.

Tu es bienvenu pour pratiquer ton japonais avec nous ici en attendant.

Hello! I'm 20, and I'm American, nice to meet chya!

I'm just ending my study abroad on April 18th~ I'm planning a trip for two weeks afterward. I'm hitting up Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Kobe, and maybe Tokyo again. I can meet up with you~ How many years of Japanese have you studied?

Heya! I'm bilingual in French and English (my mum is french) but I'm going to write in English so we don't alienate non French-speakers

I'm also planning to visit Japan around May this year, but I haven't got the exact dates decided yet. I'm going to stay for about 3 weeks, but I've been trying to get as many contacts as possible who are going there around the same time so that if we happen to be in Japan at the same time we can meet up (instead of planning to go together and then being disappointed when someone cancels). I'm 19 by the way, and I'm currently on a gap year before going to university next year ^^

How much Japanese do you know? I've been trying to learn the language rather unsuccessfully since I was 11. If you're learning it too, it would be great if we could practice with each other, and share ideas on where to go on our travels, even if we don't end up meeting! I'm in England by the way. ^^

Hi myself and miss misa are in our early twenties and British (so we are meant to hate you French right? *jokes ;p*) and planning our trip in may/june sometime so if we are around we could probably meet you a couple of times to keep you company for shopping and hanging out, not the whole trip for practical reasons but for a couple of keep-you-company sessions that might be pretty cool
Follow our thread started by missmisa for more info of what days we end up on and hotel advice.

Salut Sophie!

Je te comprends, quand je suis aller au Japon en 2009, ma mere est venu avec moi, elle ne m'aurait jamais laisser partir toute seule!

Mon conseil: Cherche pour des amis qui sont deja au Japon. L'internet est fantastique pour ca. A travers un forum de musique japonaise, je me suis fais 2 copines qui etudiaient au Japon au meme moment que j'allais etre a Tokyo. Apres avoir echanger plusieurs courriel pour apprendre a se connaitre et meme s'etre ajouter sur Facebook, elles m'ont toutes les deux donner leur numero de telephone au Japon, et nous nous sommes rencontrer une fois que je suis arriver.

C'etait super parce que je me suis fais de super bonnes amies, elles connaissaient deja Tokyo mieux que moi, donc elles ont pu m'aider, et j'ai eu une super bonne experience! Les 2 etaient des etudiantes venant de l'Europe donc je ne me sentais pas du tout a l'ecart ou comme un "alien" dans l'ocean de japonais.

Te gene pas si tu veux m'envoyer un courriel pour discuter: suteisichan@gmail.com

Bonne chance!

The OP hasn't logged in on over two months, so don't expect much of a response.
