Day 1 – Finally here

Yeah 2 blogposts short after each other. Blame timezones I guess.

Anyways the wait in Beijing went flawless the same counts for the flight.

26 hours later than planned, I arrived in Narita and got interviewed by TV Tokyo – for the program where they ask foreigners why they’re arriving in Japan. No clue when that’ll air. But I’d rather not see that mess back :p

I purchased myself a data sim (a decision I already regret, at my hostel they offer a cheaper and better plan, well shit happens I guess.) and made my way to the hostel. The train ride was a breeze.

After check-in I went to the mini-stop at the corner to get some dinner. I didn’t need much as I was still stuffed from the airline food.

I almost went full weeb mode (didn’t see any Ramune) Yakitori were decent, the DBS cent-waffer is okay. The apple water lacks any kind of apple. But got a weird after taste instead. Nice experiment, but I’ll pass next time. The card I got from the waffer is the same as the packaging, a Gold Rare apparently.

Then I went on a stroll with no real destination, except back to the hostel.
On my walk I noticed a ton of mini-supermarkets and vending machines. Even the local book store was still open at 19:00.

I somehow managed to find my way back, but now I think it’s time to go and get some sleep. As tomorrow is one of the few planned headliners of the trip ^^

The bed is.. well just long enough for me. I know some people that wouln’t fit in here.
