[Rogozhin]

I felt pretty isolated in Japan...until this week when I started travelling on my own. I stayed at minshukus and got friendly with the innkeepers. I also asked A LOT of questions, like "What is ##### famous for?". I asked this at a little Ramen shop and ended up getting into a enjoyable conversation with the other customers. Oh and bars, I met a few interesting people there.

I think if you show interest in other people (or about something that they would know a lot about), they`ll show interest in you.

It`s very easy to feel isolated in Japan but I also think that it`s very easy to change that.
