1. How old are you?
I'm a 19-year-old girl.

2. Have you ever been to Japan?
Nope.

6. If you have never been to Japan, would you like to go?
No, though I'd like to go, I don't have a super-hardcore desire to.

7. What attracts you?
Food, sights, culture -- all that. Since I'm an USAF cadet I'd love to be stationed in Okinawa.

8. If you only have one day to visit Japan, which city would you want to visit? And Why?
Hmm, well if it's only for one day, I'd choose a bustling city that still had some shrines and a garden (like Tokyo). An ideal visit would be to go sight-seeing for most of the day, see one of my favorite Japanese bands/musicians in concert and in the evening go eat as many new things as I could (hopefully I would have not eaten all day -- IMO trying new food is so much better when you're starving ) and end the day in a nice hotel with a hot spring. I'd also like to see the Okinawan beaches

1. 27

2. yes

3. twice

4. 1 year

5. Tokyo

7. Food, friends, anime, the language, matsuri, hot summers, huge contrast between old and new,....

8. I guess i´d go with Tokyo because there is so much to see and do + i have very good friends living there and i have spent quite a bit of time in this city. Closely followed by Sendai (because of Matsushima close by) and Fukuoka (i just like this city)


Back home after 1 year work and travel in Japan and 3 month in Korea: www.teglas.asia (text is in German, but see the pictures!)

I was over there for a study abroad program, also I'm Japanese biologically but didn't know a whole lot about the culture and lifestyle.

I didn't get to see Mt. Fuji, so I would definitely go there for the Fuji rock festival.

1. How old are you?
29

2. Have you ever been to Japan?
Yes, I live there.

3. If you answer yes to question 2, how many times?
Umm, I think I`ve had 6 or 7 entries into the country...

4. If you answer yes to question 2, what is the longest duration you've stayed in Japan for?
10 years. But if we want to be very picky and refer to time spent in the country without leaving it at all for any reason (like on vacation...) - 5 1/2 years.

5. Which one is your favourite city?
I like a lot of different places for a lot of different reasons, but wouldn`t choose to *live* anywhere but around Nagoya.

The rest don`t really apply.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
