I am in Tokyo for one week now. Everything is great so far, getting around is no problem as all the metro signs are also displayed in English. In almost all other places there is no English translation, Japanese only, and I feel like an illiterate. But this what makes any trip very interesting :).
I decided to visit a Japanese exhibition on mobile technologies called Wireless Japan yesterday that took place at Tokyo Big Sight. English was barely spoken but it was an exciting and informative event, even without understanding Japanese, as I was able to look at many new electronic gadgets and mobile services.
Challenge for next week: Try Japanese coworking.
