Tokyo Action
Man we were out till approximately 6am last night. Tokyo is mad.
Its a good trip so far, every insightful. I got to see how Vics life is and how the action really is in tokyo for him and his friends. Basic conclusion that Booby and I have come to is the following
Lifestyle
- everyone works insane hours.
- it is fricking crowded as hell
- comfort aint no SF -- its hotter, colder, muggier, more crowded, hot on trains, hot in elevators etc
- food is awesome, and you can eat cheap in tokyo
- on the flip side, social scene is expensive overall
Social
- wow lots of eye candy/girls.
- a bit too mob mentality -- all girls look and dress the same
- girls at age 28+ are on aggressive hunts for men. shortage of men in general here
- lots of avg/above avg girls to hang out with. kind of the opposite of SF. SF has tons of guys who hang out, with 1-2 girls maybe. In tokyo its 1-2 guys with a hoard of girls on a typical night out.
- really tiring to stay out so late all the time! its a young persons town for sure.
Overall I have seen the life here and its not bad. I could do it. Its more an equation of what I leave behind vs what I gain. Something taken, something left behind. Back to Locards Principal.
Key Annoyances
1) no trash cans anywhere
2) keyboards are jacked up here i cant type
3) no paper towels in bathrooms anywhere
I think UBS is going to fly me over to Hong Kong for an itnerview. Wooooo.. free trip.
