        Quotes

        • Marina Zalahas quoted8 years ago
          Touching another person is not normal in Japan and can make people feel very uncomfortable. Public displays of affection are considered inappropriate and very uncool - even between married couples

            English speaking Japanese people are not common, but if you do have an encounter with somebody who speaks English, keep what you say clear, slow and simple so that they can understand you more easily.

              Drinking and driving can be a 1 million yen fine and/or a year or two in jail. The alcohol limit is ZERO.
