Arigatō and sayonara Japan!

Who would have thought that I would spend over one-third of my travel time in Japan. I had the privilege of visiting the most wonderful places on all four main islands. Cycling all over Japan was fairly easy compared to some other countries I have been to before. The infrastructure is well-developed, potable water is available pretty much everywhere for free, the cities and roads are clean and the traffic was in most cases considerate. It is certainly a little mecca for all enthusiastic cyclists out there.
My time here is over and I can only bow to Japan and all the people who showed nothing but kindness and generosity. There are certainly a few exemplary manners that we could learn from the Japanese culture.
Arigatō Nihon!Weiterlesen
