Hello!

This is Brendan.

How are you?

Before I moved to Japan

I only lived in America.

I never even visited other countires,

so Japan was completely different.

That's why today

I want to talk about

what surprised me about Japan!

The biggest difference in

how safe it is!

In my hometown,

it's not safe to walk around

or drive after midnight.

However,

in Japan I always see people

outside very late.

I used to be afraid to walk anywhere

when it was too late,

but in Japan I feel safe

and walk to many places

very late night.

Another thing that surprised me

is how crowded the trains are!

My train ride home is

always super packed!!

I can't move my body at all.

One thing I really like about Japan

is how convenient it is.

In my hometown there aren't

many places open 24 hours

and I had to drive to them.

But in Japan there are many

convenience stores

just a short walk away!

If I want to eat ice cream at 3 a.m.

I don't have to go far!

The last surprising thing is

how good the service is at restaurants.

In America the service isn't always good,

and you have to pay extra for a tip!

The tip is usually at least 10%

but many people pay 20% extra

even if the service is bad.

But in Japan the service is much better

and you don't have to pay extra for a tip!

Have you ever been to another country?

If so, what surprised you??

Please tell me about it!
