Hello from Japan!!

Ola amigos!!
Estou neste momento no Japao, mais precisamente em Takayama, uma pequena cidade historica no centro do Japao.
Aproveito o facto de estar a chover la fora para colocar mais um artigo no blog..
Estive 4 dias em Tokyo e gostei muito da cidade. A experiencia de ir de manha no metro onde nao cabe mais ninguem (talvez com mais uns empurroezinhos, caiba mais 1 pessoa), a experiencia de estar descansado a jantar e ver a tasca ser invadida por executivos que acabaram de chegar no ultimo comboio, a experiencia de fazer um tour e um grupo de miudos me chamar para me ir sentar e apesar de eu recusar eles manterem o lugar disponivel para mim (aqui respeitar os mais velhos e um valor muito forte), a experiencia de passar metade do dia descalco.... um mar (por falar em mar, ontem vi o mar junto a Odawara) imenso de experiencias que estao a ser interessantes e que sabem tao bem, neste pais tao organizado e com um povo muito respeitador.

After China, and 4 days in South Korea, now I am in Japan.
South Korea was a good stop for 4 days, I enjoyed a lot Seoul. Seoul, in contrast with chinese big cities seems to be a city where I could live. It has also its big buildings, but also gets parks and people there is much closer to japanese style than to chinese.
Gyeong-Ju was a good place to walk around, visit its historic center and some more temples.
Busan was great to go to the beach and touch sea water again. Also there, I went out to have dinner in a typical korean barbecue with an american teaching english near Seoul and then went out with a french traveling in asia for several months.
From Busan I flied all the way to Tokyo where I spent 4 excellent days. Tokyo is a unique city, though a very big one, but one where we can feel local culture in every corner.
I should develop more on Tokyo, but will leave it to when I meet you guys, as now I am heading out for dinner. By the way, after Tokyo and before Takayama, I was in Nikko and Hakone region, also two good travel destinations.
