I think of the intenseness that is Tokyo (prob. because that's the only place I've been to in Japan). Also izakayas, politeness as godwine said, well-dressed females and technology.

When I think of Japan, for some odd reason, I think of the countryside.

Yeah, I don't think of shrines and temples and ancient Japanese stuff that much like I should. I think of a more modern day Japan than an ancient Japan.
I think the same but without the claustrophobia! ^_^


Hihi people of the world...

I image Tokyo, a steaming bowl of curry ramen while being in a lifely restaurant, anime billboard adds, beautiful Japanese girls with cool phones, an awesome night life, and happiness. Chessey I know but I don't care.

I see me having a job in Okinawa, sitting at my new desk, pictures of my wife and kids on the desk, listening to music as I work, driving home in my K-car and arriving at my 4 bedroom house, and saying Tadima![spell?]

Or, the beach, anytime I think of the beach its on Okinawa, or Miyako-jima where there are NO SOUNDS but the ocean.

I'd want to die in my sleep with sand between my ties and the sound of the waves.

Hewa!

I see Tokyo when someone mentions Japan...I think it's because it was like the first image I ever saw of the country years ago so it kind of stuck in my mind
