So, for all of you who have been losing sleep because daninjapan.theeggman.net has not been updated since arrival, I am very sorry; sumimasen. As you might have imagined, I have been quite busy in these past few days.
I meant to post on the 24th, however i had two images I based those posts off of, and was having difficulty getting the size reduced through my blogger so it didn’t mess up my page. Fortunately, www.flickr.com has helped me solve this problem, as you see in the photo above.
Despite my not being responsible with posting, you can accurately infer that as a sign as me getting out into Tokyo and trying to experience everything I can experience.
I don’t want to fill these pages with a focus on, “I saw this, I saw that,” because that is not very interesting. You can look up the famous shrines and temples on any website. While I might talk about the sites a little bit, I think it’ll be much more interesting to talk about my impression of the culture, based off the observations and interactions I’ve had with them. To say the Japanese are a unique culture is almost an understatement because literally everything about the culture is different than any I’ve heard of or experienced. I’ll do my best to explain, but really, visiting Japan is the only way you can truly understand. And, of course, if anyone wants to go to Japan I’d be glad to come (again) with and show them around (albeit they pay cover all of my expenses! 
)
So, when I arrived I met a lot of awesome people that I’ll tell you about more of later, but i have to mention my first Israeli friend, who we all call Izzy. Izzy introduced me to a bunch of people in the hostel who I ended up befriending and getting to hang out with a good majority of my time in Tokyo. He’s incredibly funny, and enjoys trying Japanese drinks for the first time by adding vodka… This is Izzy:
