How much longer do you think things are going to be like this in Japan?
For now officially until after Golden Week, but might get extended...most likely actually.
What is considered juice in Japan?
Carbonated drinks are considered juice for some reason in Japan. It was surprising to me too.
Indoor shoes
The students usually have designated indoor shoes so they all look the same, but the teachers can wear trainers or any comfortable shoes they want.
Is it worth getting a commuter pass?
I don’t know if you mean the card or the app, but they do have an app for the cards/teiki now. You can transfer money to it pretty easily too.
Which theme park do you recommend?
Disney is great, but if you're going to be in Kansai, I would consider Universal Studios Japan too. Especially if you like Harry Potter and other movies.
What are those white slips of paper people get at the ticket gate?
They prove that the train was delayed on the way to work. Recently, they have an app for that.
how bad are earthquakes there?
It really depends on where you are. They come frequently...maybe at least one you can feel every month or every two months, especially if you live in the northeast area. The shaking is strong but usua...
What's considered burnable and non-burnable garbage?
It can be different depending on where you live. Some places are very strict. Others, like where I live, don't care about separating everything...
Sorry for asking so many questions but I have a lot. I have dyed hair. Can I get a job?
Of course, it depends on your occupation. The more natural looking, the better.
What taxes do you have to pay in Japan?
Income, residence and health insurance (health insurance isn't really a tax but it's mandatory)
