[TODDMEISTER]

Hi guys,

I'm looking for any advice on travelling alone in Japan. Im thinking of visiting in April 2010 for 2 weeks, probably 1 week in Tokyo & another week in one of the other big cities. I've done some solo travelling in Thailand and found it easy to meet people, mainly due to the large number of ex-pat & western bars there.

I suppose my main question is, how easy is it to meet other travellers or people in a similar situation in Japan?

Im not too concerned about travelling alone but it would be great to make some new friends to have a couple of beers with along the way.

If it helps im 29, guy from England & will be probably be staying in hostels rather than hotels.

Any tips or info is much appreciated.

Cheers
