Japan is an awful country to visit. Simply awful. Have they really got anything to offer a traveler? I highly doubt it. If you disagree with me, just read the following 15 reasons why you would never want to set a foot in this country. |
1. You loathe epic views. |
2. There is too much air pollution to see the stars. |
3. You prefer to see horses in stables rather than running free. |
4. Take a stroll at dusk? Don't bother, nothing to see. |
5. Adventure is not a word you're fond of. |
6. Cities like Yokohama can never compare to Tokyo. |
7. You hate all monkeys, even the cute, fuzzy ones. |
8. Don't bother strolling on a Sunday, either. There's nowhere to really see something beautiful. |
9. Not to mention the streets are too crowded to get any good views. |
10 Haven't these people heard of zoos? |
11. You're allergic to cherry blossoms. |
12. After the sun goes down, there's really nothing to look at. |
13. Climbing any of the mountains won't be gratifying either, nothing but clouds. |
14. You detest taking road trips and looking at scenery. |
15. You like your alcohol cold, your servers impolite and your snacks from the microwave. |
