Tokyo is a multiethnic city that provides young and old people with plenty of opportunities. Some might argue it is too hectic but its sounds and lights and people is what makes you feel alive. Besides, it takes less than an hour to get out of the metropolis and find yourself plunged into nature, by hiking on the wilderness trials of the nearby Mt Takao or by enjoying the sun setting behind Mt Fuji while surfing in the neighboring Shonan area.

In Tokyo, there are many unspoken social rules. Public transportation is used by the majority of people here and buses and trains are often crowded. When riding one of these forms of transportation, there are many of these social rules to be careful of. First, you should not speak too loudly. Even when the train is crowded, people are usually quiet. In addition to this, it is rude to speak on the phone on public transportation. It is also not appropriate to eat or drink while on a bus or train. While none of these actions are, in fact, prohibited, they are looked down on by most people here.
