Packing for Japan: What to bring and exchanging money!

9m 30sLänge

The best way to exchange money, what clothes to bring, toiletries and food you can/can't get in Japan, and gifts! What you should take with you to Japan. Something I forgot to mention but is really important--VITAMINS!! They're VERY expensive in Japan ($30+ for one bottle!) This video ended up a bit long so here's a guide if you're only interested in certain sections: 0:11 - Passport/Visa 0:52 - Various money exchanging methods 1:45 - The best way to exchange money 3:15 - What kind of clothes you should take 5:29 - Toiletries you can/can't get in Japan 6:24 - Why you should consider bringing a pillow 6:53 - Electronics & Adapters 7:06 - Some food you can/can't get in Japan 7:58 - Gifts you should consider bringing 8:48 - What you should NOT bring to Japan (HINT: IT'S DRUGS!!)

It was getting progressively darker as I took this video and I guess I thought it would be a good idea to shine my computer right at my face. And I am not in any way being paid by Capital One or anything similar. I highly recommend doing your own research before making any decisions about money!

thank you for ALL of your WONDERFUL videos. I just retired and am planning a trip March 16 - 30. Will I be in trouble for bringing my prescription thyroid medicine?
I personally exchanged money in my home country at our local bank, I guess the exchange rates were pretty much fine, it just took like 4 - 6 weeks until the money arrived, but that was fine to me. I just figured out that I brought not enough money for 4 weeks; I'm kind of this cute japanese stuff lover (like Rilakkuma or anything from Studio Ghibli), that stuff is hella expensive here. next time I'm gonna bring more money ^^
I haven't been to Japan but I've been to a lot of Asian countries and lived in Thailand and a lot of what you said applies to Thailand as well. I actually prefer some of the Asian brands of deodorant because they often contain a whitening agent, and I used a diva cup rather than worry about buying tampon. This video was super helpful though, I'm especially worries about clothing.
can I bring hot cheetoes?
I never like Kyoto, people are so proud. Osaka is better, people are down to earth. Bad experiences at so called famous ギョザレストラン they serve my food after my Japanese friend finish his food.
Like I said,U couldn't be more WRONG about people not wearing band t -shirts in Japan Oh and I just watched some guy in China wearing a Nirvana shirt and yeah u are SO WRONG,not only do it I see it in Japan but I see it ALL over Asia,so yeah....There's people from all over the world that wear they're favorite band t-shirt.PEOPLE u can wear ANYTHING u want in JAPAN,don't listen to her regarding that.She must not get around Japan that much.
Your SO WRONG about Japanese people not wearing band t-shirts,I know a lot of Japanese punks and metal heads that wear band t- shirts.
I'm heading to Japan at some point in July 2020 and I've got 2 Pokemon T-shirts, some Transformers t-shirts, Disney T-Shirt, Dangermouse t-shirt at so do you think I should one day wear them in Japan someday? I also have a Ash Ketchum cosplay jacket and an Ash Ketchum hat for cosplay?
I never noticed, they don't bake in Japan?
question what about medicine like anti psychotics if you have ADHD or Autism spectrum disorder would that be consider unacceptable?
do t shirts count for ladies as long they dont show cleavage
Thanks for the help! but what if you want to live there forever? Which visa do you need?
I take medication for anxiety, how should I bring that? Thank you for the video, it's very helpful!
what about medication for epilepsy?
Hmmm, would I be allowed to bring Dutch cheese on a plane to Japan?
can i bring my inhaler to japan?
what Japanese think of beard Muslims ?
So helpful, thank you!
Hi Rachel! I´m going to Japan in March 2017, I´ll be backpacking across Japan. My question is, because my return ticket is for 90 days from then, if they ask me at immigration why I´m spending so long just for turism, is it safe to say i´ll be backpacking, or should I say i´ll be staying at a fixed friend´s address (i have a friend there). Arigatou gozaimasu!
//Yo! I'm going to visit Japan for 3 weeks in summer 2017 (for a language school thing called EF) and I'm going to live with a host family. I already take off my shoes in my country cause it's normal here and I already know to shower before a bath. I'm really grateful that you mentioned the gift thing, cause I was wondering if I should bring gifts to the host family. Though, are there any other things I should bring or stuff I should remember when I meet the host family? I will be the only non-Japanese in that house, so I can't ask anyone else.
