Some differences between Japan and The Netherlands

Rubbish! Its everywhere, Im not saying Holland is dirty. Its just that its a small culture shock to see so many people throwing rubbish on the ground.

A wonderful selection of Meat! In the supermarket, i actually dont know which one to pick – there is such a massive amount to choose from. Its great!

Bicycle lanes. Japan doesn’t have bike lanes. Simple. Also its a different side of the road! Which is really messed up when you have to cycle across a crossroad – wondering if im going to get hit by traffic. It just doesn’t feel right!

Shops are closed early. This one is a killer. In Japan i could by an ice cream from the 7Seven at 3AM if i wanted. Here the dam shops have a closing time. I genuinely miss 24hour convenience stores!!
