Hi godwine. Thanks for your reply. I see what you're saying, it's just I will have two 21 day rail passes so that leaves less than 50 days for transportation costs, plus four weeks with host families who will transport me most of the time, so that leaves say 30 days for transport maybe if the JR passes and homestay overlap a little. So if I budget $500 for the remaining 30days for transport ($17 a day), I still have $3000 for the rest of the time for food and souvenirs. What do you think about that?
In case you were wondering, I'm not in Japan already. I leave for Japan on December 1st and come back to Australia on 27th February.
Also, do you think it being winter while I am there will make any difference as to what I have to budget for?
