May 3, 2008 - Tokyo, Japan

In fact you DO see many people asleep on the underground here as it is plausibly the only quiet moment they get where they are not dashing about. The seats in the carriages of the...

Lost in translation: Tokio dag 1
August 21, 2007 - Tokyo, Japan
Tot zover dus Nederland. Laatste impressie: Hoek om,pijp uit, kist in. Laatste broodje ham/kaas van Debby. Tenminste, ik neem even aan dat de stewardess Debby heette. Ik heb in 14 uur vliegtijd niet kunnen ontdekken of dat echt zo was.
Eerste impressie: Japan is anders. Japan is ontzettend efficient. En Japan is ontzettend warm en vochtig!...
