turning japanese i really think so
Things I’ve learnt in Japan:
- Nobody jaywalks. The crossings don’t have buttons. Even at 7.30am the cars wait for each other and the pedestrians wait too. In Tokyo they do the same, until one guy crosses — and it’s always a guy — and then everyone crosses. Apparently it’s a curse if the trailing folk die.
- hand over your business or credit card with both hands.
- don’t slam the cab doors. Apparently they’re automatic.
