thanks for all your replies guys. i am financially stable and i am going to make an effort to explore soon. i am currently staying indoors because i have a bit of a cold and feeling not so grand at the moment. i don't wanna go out sneezing and coughing as the people here are already so cautious about illness (they still wear face masks!) i have taken a basic japanese class at my college and i am currently self teaching myself here also.
