"Unwritten Rules" in Japan 日本の見えないルール

In this episode, I answer some questions about daily life and manners in Japan.

It can be a bit confusing sometimes like the table charge at restaurants or where to stand on the escalator. I talk about those little cultural differences today.

Topics:

• Otoshi (Appetizer): Do you have to pay?
• Escalators: Standing on the left vs. the right.
• Business Japanese: The real meaning of "Kentou shimasu" (I'll think about it).
• Trash Cans: Why are there none in the city?
• Rush Hour: The pressure to move fast at ticket gates.

I hope this is good listening practice for you.
