GeoDesic,

Do people in Japan speak English? I mean the average Joe..

Because in most large industrialized non-Anglo countries (France, Italy, Germany etc) it’s pretty difficult to find English speakers

The only places where English is spoken widely as a second language is in Scandinavia and the Netherlands.

All the other places in Europe the average person barely speaks English, the snobby French are even the worst, they pretend like they dont understand it.

GeoDesic,

Tell us about the situation in Japan.

I wouldn't know since I didn't interact with people a lot. Except one night where after Class we took the city bus to our hotel. We decided to skip the taxi fare. This University student sat next to me to chatt me up in English. He asked me about my experience in Japan/The City and where I came from. He was keen to practice English. Aside from that I met this Taiwanese Girl who lived and worked in Japan. We got coffe breaks every morning and we met in the break room. She was really hot and too friendly. She even offered to take me and my friend to night-clubs and party scenes. I declined politely and mentioned to her our tight schedule, and the fact that we had two night break before flying back to the US. But, Oh man, I had such strong temptations. She was so willing and eager, too interested, and beautiful. I am glad I didn't follow my instincts though. I didn't tell my friend about her untill we were packing our stuff on flight day and he was furious hahahahaha. He kept cursing that I didn't take that offer up. Gaal waa ceeb ku caqli. Waxay wasaanaa u daran 24/7.

I asked one of the front desk employees where I could find a pharmacy but right away, a young Chinese lady on the sideline approached me and offered her assistance and gladly took me to a drug store and helped me as a translator with her fluent English. She asked me if we could have some tea together, I reluctantly accepted, knowing how risky it can be to deal with strangers while traveling in a foreign land. She lured me to a nearby tea house�"and she stressed that as university student, she seeks contact with foreign travelers in order to improve her English skills. Twenty minutes later, one of the bar ladies gave me a bill, totaled 900 Chinese Yuan, an equivalent of $132 dollars for two teas and snack (nuts). I was speechless and in disbelief, I asked how could two teas cost that much, "You maybe wrong, are you sure this is the right bill?” I asked. She handed me the menu and showed me the price and service charge. I looked at my wallet and found only 650 Yuan that I have exchanged for $100 dollars just before I left the hotel. At one point, I decided to refuse to pay, but realized that I had fallen for one of the Chinese scams and have no choice, but to pay, otherwise I would have to face Chinese justice. Finally, I accepted the charges and gave the lady my Visa Card.

Aint that a bitch.
