Why japan? Well there are lots of reasons haha. Filmost showed me a link to a flashsale for flights to tokyo. I missed out on the sale, but the flights during my spring break in march are relatively cheap 1350. I've been to japan once in the summer after 5th grade and loved the experience. I went with my best friend at the time who was japanese and had family there, we traveled to see the most of the country. Her family was in Osaka but we saw kyoto, hiroshima, but didn't see much of tokyo that I can recall. Now that I'm much older, I really want to experience japan, especially in another season such as it being cold in march. I think i'll miss the sakura blossoms, though I might take up the opportunity to go snowboarding in nagano. But to delve deeper into why japan, i've been influenced by various asian cultures my whole life. My mother grew up in hawaii and bangkok and singapore because my grandfather was a parisitologist traveling studying tropical diseases. Her influence was passed down to me and I was raised going to a thai buddhist temple that my mom and dad helped found and eventually got married in. Mainly, I love asian food and the real stuff, not americanized crap. I really want to meander around tokyo and enjoy a city known to have some of the best food in the world. I do watch anime and have watched naruto since the 7th grade, which has ended in the comic and will end soon in the anime, but I'm not one of those crazy anime nerds, so I'm not going to japan for the anime....especially since i don't know japanese and the whole cosplay thing isn't for me, but it would be interesting to look at. Honestly now that I think of why japan? It's hard to say, there's just something that's drawing me back (maybe it's my obsessive tendencies like how I'm currently obsessed with peppers). I've been researching airbnb and am definitely on a budget, found a nice couple who teach english in tokyo and it's 17$ a day. I really want to experience a city like anthony bourdain would with its people, not really as a tourist. For that reason, and budget reasons, I'm trying to find someone to experience the city with that would let me crash for cheap. Those capsules are 30$ a night and me being 6`6 might be a bit too big. There's another host from airbnb for 10$ a day and he says he's fluent in english and would take me around which I would be really cool. I'm thinking march 3rd-22nd and miss a week of school. Still not sure if I would travel outside of tokyo aside from going snowboarding, maybe a week in kyoto and week in tokyo, but with the dates I have now I know I could spend the entire time in tokyo looking for things to do and not just be a tourist. Oh and i'd hit up the chileheads near tokyo too, i know there's a few 
Would you go to tokyo with me?
