Japan Love

I have always wanted to come here after all the rave about their high-tech stuff and their unique culture. I had a short stay in Osaka first. then Narita. The weather in both places were pretty chilly, and as I am so afraid of the cold, it isn't my favourite time of the year in Japan. Osaka's weather was much more bearable though.

I was amazed by how I couldn't even flush the toilet haha! And when I went to a ramen restaurant in Namba, everything from ordering to serving of meal, there wasn't much human contact at all. Everything was done systematically and error free. Ordering and payments are done using machines. If there is any human contact at all, like the accessories shop and bakery I visited, the way they do things (from putting your item to the bag, how they present their items and how they give extra little bags if you buy in bulk) I can tell that they serve from the heart. That is how service should be done. And Japan has caught my heart.

I also visited Narita village and its very own temple. I would absolutely love to feel the tranquility and peace there again. Not to mention the food *drools*. Narita Temple was simply beautiful, painted with all sorts of colours. I made an offering for B and I. One of those places where you wonder how much you are missing out in life.

I will be back.
