We touchdown Narita airport with so much excitement but I was so surprised how quiet the airport was. All you could hear are the footsteps of people walking around the place. For someone like me who came from a very noisy country like Philippines, the silence of Japan and its people are indubitably defeaning!
I and Yaniss needed to be in the restroom just so we could talk. Hail! Japan`s restroom treated us like a princess! I got so fascinated with how sophisticated and high tech their toilet bowls are. Imagine just sitting down and let the bowl do the thing for you. Pardon me for my ignorance, but seriously, I feel in love with Japan`s famous "toto" toilet facilities. I want to bring it home!
While on our way to the Hotel, seeing several mothers biking with their kids on board was truly heartwarming. I saw several mothers having two kids on board, one in front and one behind. Seriously, I envy them. How I wish I can do the same in my own country but the pollution and security issue suggests that its all too impossible. I envy more how secured Japan is.
On our way to Akihabara for the welcome party, I finally got to taste an authentic sushi within Yodobashi area. Tuna in Japan is far different from our tuna. I really hate raw foods but authentic japanese sushi is just so irresistibly scrumptious.
The highlight of our night was the welcome dinner with SousPeak graduates.
Rarely do I mingle with students in SousPeak because I don`t want to disturb them in studying but this night, despite not being too close to all of them, SousPeakers gave us an extraordinary warmth welcome party. I got so fascinated seeing how gorgeous and handsome they are when they`re in their own comfort zone. To all our beloved SousPeakers who spare their precious time with us last night, I owe you big time! Tokyo experience wouldn`t be fun and memorable if not because of you. I really enjoyed talking and laughing the whole night. I didn`t except Japanese knows how to laugh hard and have fun too! LOL
