Those of you who have crossed the ocean to come here to Los Angeles and Japan
are always concerned about something related to your travel between Los Angeles and Japan.

If you have anything to say or questions, please feel free to write.
I'll try to write "something" as well.

Example :
What means do you use to call when you return to Japan?

Which seat on the plane do you prefer, Aisle or Window, front, back,

Which airline do you think has the best food?

Which mode of transportation do you use to get to the local area?

and so on and so on

* * * [4K Front View] JR Dosan Line Kubokawa - Kochi Regular * * *

https://youtu.be/bGnYrwLWZZ8?si=7fua0R02A4mYM0sC

" !

Someone took a video of the front view of the train from Kubokawa, JR Shikoku station in Shimanto where the 37th temple of the 88 temples of Shikoku, Fujiisan Gochiin "Iwamoto-ji" is located, to Kochi station in Kochi, the capital city of Kochi prefecture, using a local train. Kochi station in Kochi, the capital of Kochi prefecture.

The total length of the train is 1 hour and 50 minutes. It's a very long time, 1 hour and 50 minutes. But if you walk on your own foot, it is about 70 km, which is a full 3 days and 2 nights trip.

In this video, you can see the path that I walked in some places. This video shows the path I walked in some places, and I remember thinking, "Oh, I was so exhausted on this path that I could barely put my feet forward in the latter half of the day.

U/T's Daisuke-san said that the current price in Japan, especially per Dormy Inn which used to be

¥ 10,000 or less, is now docomo 2 ~ 30,000 yen now that foreign tourists can

freely enter the country.

I am also going to Japan in May,

I made a reservation at a business hotel located between Haneda and central Tokyo, ¥ about 26,000 yen per night.

Last year it was ¥ 9,600 or so.

> Toyoko Inn near Haneda is about 10,000 yen ?

Today, any budget business hotel will not be ¥ 10,000.

More than a year ago, a budget hotel a couple of stops away on the Keikyu and a 15 minute walk away cost ¥ about 26,000.


> Didn't you say that a capsule hotel with shared toilets and showers was enough ?

That was a long time ago, and I don't stay in those capsule hotels anymore regardless of the cost. Ototsuan, you have a good memory for your age.

That means I often take the 7 am domes and from that capsule hotel it takes 15 ~ 20 minutes to walk to Keikyu Kamata, and even if the train comes soon, it takes 13 minutes to the Haneda Airport 1/2 building station and at least 15 minutes from the underground station to the boarding gate, so what the heck, it is Akihabara in Kanda.

I am now staying at the "First Cabin Haneda", which is a bit like a hairy capsule hotel in the Airport 2 Building. From here, after checking out, a short walk on the same floor leads to the JAL Domes boarding gate.

I'm wondering how to handle the cell phone I use here when I travel to Japan.

I use a T-Mobile cell phone here.

Last year, I think, T-Mobile switched automatically when I arrived at Haneda, Japan, and I was able to call at

the rate in Japan, but now

does it switch the same way?

I searched T-Mobile's site for a while and found

something about Roaming, which I don't understand.


If anyone has recently taken a T-Mobile cell phone to Japan and used it

please tell me how it went.

> T-Mobile has them all over town

> You can go to a store close to where you live and ask.

That was about 10 years ago, and these days, with better internet access,

small agencies like retail stores in town are all but gone around here.

You might want to move your car around the neighborhood sometime.

I too was recently surprised to find that the T-Mobile store 5 minutes away has been replaced by a completely different SuperCuts.

I used T-Mobil International in Japan last month.

I have an international plan, so I could use it, but the speed was slow, so I went online and applied for a 1 day $ 5 , 10 days $ 35 , 30 days $ 50 plan.

If you are on the international plan, you will receive a message "Wellcome Japan"" when you arrive in Japan.

Mr. Baikin.

You can google the store as much as you want.
And if you look up the customer service phone on the device you're posting here and call them, they'll explain it in detail.

Mr. Blue Hill,

Thank you very much for your valuable information.

I wasn't sure if I was on T-Mobile's international plan, so I went into T-Mobile's site and looked for a grizzly and found that I was on the following conditions. So I could use it in Japan last year.

Low flat-rate calling while abroad
$ 0.25/minute in 215+ countries and destinations

Data and texting while abroad
Unlimited text and up to 5GB of high-speed data in 11 countries, then unlimited data at up to 256Kbps in 215+ countries and destinations
25 cents per minute is fair, but I can't afford to spend too much time on the phone. I'll have to tell my wife for sure.

T-Mobile seems to use Softbank in Japan, but Softbank is a bit hard to reach in mountain towns in Shikoku.


A long time ago, when I was walking in town after leaving my lodgings in Dogo Onsen in Matsuyama, Ehime Prefecture in the morning, I received a phone call out of the blue. I was so surprised. If I was in LA as I usually am, I could take my time and explain, but I explained that I was in Shikoku, Japan, walking on a pilgrimage, and politely declined to make a long phone call.


Son,

Sorry, I went to the store I asked to set up in Japan last year before I went to Japan to apply again this time, but it was replaced by a barber shop Super Cuts, and then I looked from a little distance at the agency I had stopped by last year for something else. I also looked at the agency I had stopped by last year from a distance and saw a sign on the front door and no cars in the large parking lot, so I decided it was closed as well. Well, I guess your son is right, you can find it that way. Thank you very much.

So,

I am going back to Japan, to Shikoku, in the second half of next month.

If I can get into T-Mobile's site then, I will apply for the use of the phone in Japan on the Internet, or

if that is not possible, I will find a T-Mo store that will be open and go there.

I don't care about other people's lives except for theirs, because it's not my hobby

If I had taken my cell phone last time, I would remember it and go to Japan in the same way, if I go to Shikoku, I write.
