Hello @gokazoku The same happened to me with theirs food.
Just going to take language classes, before to visits it again.

@idestroy We were lucky enough to travel with Natsumi who can speak fluent Japanese. Really helps especially when you like to travel off the beaten path.

@gokazoku Yes, it is the best way. I just did with a very close person, she speaks fluently Japanese and English; for that reason was easy to path to everything, and has family there. We did enjoy food and family too.
