It's an odd experience because it's very much a first world country and in many, many ways they are more advanced technologically and in infrastructure ...but it's also sooooo foreign. It's unlike India or Vietnam where the obvious poverty and lack of organized development gives you visual cues of just how different the culture is. Tokyo feels like NYC, but on a planet you're visiting for the first time.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
