i was just reading the first few articles...it's great...they really explore those unique things that japan has to offer whether it's traditional culture or the Japanese penchant for modern design....this would a great magazine to get and read before you planned a visit to japan...because you could use it a a resource...i could already see myself earmarking certain reviews or articles about certain places that'd i want to visit if i ever went back...

i don't think you'll be disappointed...it's pretty fascinating...and it's lucidly written in english which is awesome. tryin' to imagine it..it's like one of those hyper cool magazines you'd see on the coffee table in a really expenisve apartment or something.

Classy, eh?

When I first heard about this magazine, I think they were saying it's one of the few in english, in Japan about Japan, and a bestseller. I'm not sure if it's true.

They release only 4 a year, right? I think I'll subscribe to it. If the quality is there, might as well buy it. Thanks again. :D

yeah it's a quarterly magazine...guess that enables them to keep the quality up because they don't have to pump out articles every month...i mean it has a treasure trove of info...the type of shiet your not going to find in a travel guide....

it has the hidden juuuuuuuuuuuweelllllls :P

Aho's back! :P

hey aho! welcome back!

i went on a trip to asia a few weeks ago and happen to try out japan airlines for my connecting flights...
one thing that strikes me is that they have really pretty stewardess...
The cast in the jdrama Goodluck doesnt even compare...
the planes are a bit underequipped in terms of lcd tvs, but the service is good and i get to try out sake for breakfast, hehehe. (not a good thing though specially on an empty stomach)...
stop over was on narita so had a chance to ride the shuttle bus for the terminal transfer... Its weird to see the bus driving on the other side of the lane... also spent some time looking aroud duty free shops and tried out the airports' sushi restaurant.

If only i had a longer vacation, i would have stayed in japan for a few days but for now, narita aiport is the closest i've been to tokyo. All my revious connecting flights were from kansai...

oh well, mzybe next time, that pilgrimage to japan will become a reality...
hehehe

arnel98 Sounds like a nice trip. Maybe I'll try sake for breakfast too. :hehe:

I just wanted to say that I'm happy I didn't overslept and missed the 5000 mark. :nut: :bonk: :ashamed:
