Top Tips & Q&A
Why do some Japanese people avoid eye contact?
In many Western cultures, eye contact is seen as a sign of confidence and attentiveness. However, in Japan, prolonged eye contact can be considered rude or confrontational. It’s a subtle way of maintaining harmony and respecting personal space.
What’s the deal with seasonal flavors in Japan?
Japan takes its seasons seriously, and this extends to food and drinks. From sakura-flavored treats in spring to sweet potato goodies in autumn, seasonal flavors offer a unique way to experience Japan’s deep connection with nature’s cycles.
Why do Japanese people point to their noses when referring to themselves?
While many people around the world point to their chest when referring to themselves, in Japan, people often point to their nose. This unique gesture is a fascinating insight into how different cultures perceive the “self.”
Why are there so many vending machines in Japan?
Beyond convenience, vending machines are a reflection of Japan’s high level of public safety and trust. You’ll find them in remote locations and even selling items you wouldn’t expect, like umbrellas or fresh eggs!
What’s the story behind Japan’s fascination with cute (kawaii) culture?
“Kawaii” culture goes beyond just being cute; it’s a form of rebellion against traditional societal pressures. It gives people the freedom to express individuality and vulnerability, which is otherwise often suppressed.
