really hoping he makes a post covid update! I can only imagine how the prices for everything have changed!
My de-facto cheapo strategy when I was living in Tokyo was to head to any of the numerous ‘Yayoi Ken’ restaurants and order the cheapest ‘ichiju sansai’, a set meal (which is either grilled miso mackerel or deep fried chicken) with unlimited top ups (it’s self service, so don’t feel shy) of plain, white rice. I would basically fast till as long as I can till about 3-4 pm (there was once I hit a 6 pm record, but it was the summer and I did nothing but hang out at Tower Records listening to records) and head to Yayoiken and eat 6 bowls of rice or something. It’s immensely fulfilling for a mere 590 yen. The meal will last you an entire day. Comes with free cold unlimited green tea, pickles and miso soup too. It gets pretty packed during rush hours, but at other times, you can sit there as long as you wish without anyone bothering you, which basically means you can eat as much rice as you like. Some of these branches (like the one in Ginza, several in Shinjuku) are open 24 hours!!!!! That’s insanely awesome!!! : )
Great advice thanks!
Please come to Japan after COVID-１９！！
I wish I could afford it. With the wages where I am from its pretty much impossible.
I wonder what decade that will be
I will.
Already got flights booked, fingers crossed I don’t have to change the date due to covid! If it’s opened back up again I should be there in March 2022
I’m saving alot of money due to the pandemic which I will spend on a trip to japan 🙂

As a person of colour this would be almost next to impossible to do especially when most of the cars would speed over when they see a 203cm man with darker skin😅.
Why the budget – wasn’t your band really big in the 90s (or is this a Live tribute channel?

👌💯
I just want to note that I spend 7 or 8 US dollars on the same soba noodles in this video at my local Japanese market. My jaw dropped when I saw the cost of food in Japan, about a third of what I pay in the US for the same meals, nearly every day at my lunch break…😱 Time to move to Japan.
Wooow considering it was 2 wks long that’s relatively cheap!
@ken s to go out of the country thats cheap dude
🤭🤔😶
@Devious Devil you’re too brilliant 👏
Then maybe you should get a job, son.
That is how people make money so they can afford to do things like travel.
@Pasha’s Ghost As a Chinese person, I can only read Kanji 😂
Ima visit japan soon. 😭
💯👌
@Abroad in Japan Disappointed you didn’t include Australian dollar conversions , Although I guess you can’t include EVERY currency. Would have liked to hear about how much it costs to travel ALL around Japan by sleeper-carriage train & what the experience is like. 😓🇦🇺 👨⚖️💭🇯🇵 🚆🛌
😉
So you know what to do when it’s finally over 🙂
Makes me sad. I miss adventures
Real reason is that u have not business
Thanks for the advice 👍
Honestly looking at how much space you get for that price, I seriously would consider to go for love hotels ;))
Hey, you get privacy.
