I also think as you're kind of confined to your booth and there is walls, it lends less to interaction with others

#

Hub is like I can sit by myself (had a guy sitting there reading a few nights ago in Roppongi one), or can try and engage with neighbours or stand and try to mingle on a busier night

#

And cos of standing room, can rock up and get it with no reservations

craggy ember
#

Idk cuz McDonald’s is like the staple fast food, cheap, consistent, delicious. That’s toriki.

#

I used to rip toriki solo all the time when I was a tourist

#

Still was able to shoot the shit

#

But yea hubs setup is probably better if ur looking to mingle

fossil knoll
#

I liked doin toriki alone. It was also fun to eaves drop on people speaking japanese

I’ve seen people do toriki alone

Got approached by two women there and legitimately couldn't tell if they were scammers or not.

Being approached sets off my alarm bells anyway but they actually looked normal and suggested a normal bar

Why is shinjuku so quiet tonight

Roppongi seems dead too

It was a bit odd. It was like they're not approaching me so scam alert but they also seemed normal and suggested an actual legit bar

Possibly but they suggested a bar called Mogambo. Id usually assume they'd be like suggesting a half dodge bar but that looked normal

I don't know what I'll do without them

Idea: open a Hub back home

Eh, I'm not sure a British themed pub chain works well in Ireland

#

Unless I can keep the same price of drink

U don’t know till u try

Hub is starter town. Learn Japanese and see the next

I dunno, Wether spoons didn't even work in Ireland

Felt like it holds you back a bit hete

Yep it does

#

Was similar in Korea but actually found English a little bit better in general there amongst younger people

#

But ya, learning Korean already so going to have to do Japanese too

Asking for directions can be harder, particularly if Google maps isn't being very helpful (like Shinjuku station area), even just in restaurant or taxis as soon as you have to do anything non standard, taking the time to type into translate and hand your phone over is annoying, and then just at bars etc if you want to talk to people

#

Like when I was out with group from here on Friday night, we were thinking about sharing a taxi back but doing 2 stops to let someone off half way. I couldn't do that via Go app, so if we did it, we'd have to try and type that into phone and ask the driver that. Be a lot easier if I could ask that in Japanese

Ah good point

who’s going to ginko avenue today?

Went yesterday. It's really nice (but crowded)

Specially when the japanese people makes backflips just to understand u even if u don’t know japanese, and if u need directions they will easily take u there even if u ask them not to

I was looking forward to use Google translate conversation but so far I've been able to navigate with the residents knowing English and/or using body language

Managed to get home now myself

#

No suitcases arrived with me though. Due to delay from flight from Narita, I had 15 minutes in Amsterdam to transfer

#

Was not fun

Always happens with amsterdam from my experience

#

Both layovers ive had there were similarly short transfers

reef hazel
#

Ya, it was meant to be 90 minutes

#

But had a decent delay at Narita and then flight time was longer too

#

I got off the plane at 20:30 and gate closed at 20:45 for my next one

#

I had to run, get through security and then run again and made it with 3 minutes to spare
