While flippin thru travel books on Japan, it came across to me 'I never knew Japan is so huge seriously' Also, i discovered, if you do not know japanese, it will be great pains if you are travelling free & easy.

The railway lines they have are amazing. They have too many different lines & make it really confusing. We are going to have troubles finding our way. My sister has warned me that it will be nerve-wrecking taking the trains.

One month to get use & learn. Hopefully by the first week, i'll be able to move about easily & the rest of the weeks will be better. Expensive expensive expensive. The only word to describe the train tickets. A japan rail pass that is considered cheap for vistors travelling around for 7 days cost approx 30000 yen. $450 converted to sing. It's many times much more expensive than singapore. Travelling on trains in a week could only cost you ard $20 bucks. Wow.

We are planning our itinerary together soon as we have to know how to get there. Cos there are other states in Japan we want to visit like Yokohama, Asakusa etc. Mount Fuji, Tokyo Tower, Tokyo Disneyland are situtated quite far from each other. Needless to say, we have to go on different days.

It spurred me for a moment. Maybe i could stay in Japan & be an expat like my sister. For one or two years, gain an experience. Hmm..sounds like i'm having a crazy idea or dream again? Well, it could be possible if my heart walks closely with it. I'll see how much i like Japan during my trip. I'll have to weigh which dream would be more realistic (the dream that i'm having that most of you know but don't mention openly in my bloggie) or be an expat. Gimme some of your views.
