New to Japan!

Hello and welcome to Japan! I'm also 26, though I'm a bit farther from Tokyo and Yokohama (in Shizuoka prefecture). But I do know there are lots of people in the area - do you use Twitter at all? There's a large expat group from that area that chats regularly on Twitter (including those of us from Shizuoka).

Hello, sorry I missed the direct commenting box. I'm working in Yokohama, but live further north. Know hardly anyone, so suggestions and friday afternoon drinking plans are most welcome!

Twitter I'm utterly unfamiliar with, but that shouldn't matter too much once I know one or two in this group.

I'll try to uplaod a picture of myself for general reference.

best regards

Hi! Thanks arciara14 for the post.  I'm not on Twitter, but maybe I should be.  So where exactly is Shizuoka?  How far are you from Tokyo?

Hey all, i'm new to both this blog and the amazing city of Tokyo, so I'm interested in finding nice people to do some sightseeing/hanging out/eating with...i have some family here but would be int meeting new people.  Kris, if there's anything in particular you would like to do in Tokyo, perhaps  we get on we could do it together?  Just a thought, and good luck in finding what you're after!

Central Shizuoka is about an hour and a half southwest of Tokyo by bullet train. Basically only a prefecture away (Kanagawa is in between Tokyo and Shizuoka).

If you do jump on Twitter, I'm @AshleyJapan and @survivingnjapan.

IŽll be goin on my own so itŽd be great to know some people there before my arrival.
