Welcome to my blog!

Hi, I’m Akihiko.

I previously worked in sales for a major Japanese telecommunications carrier, where I handled an order for 1,000 WiFi devices. I now work in IT sales and use my professional experience and local knowledge to share practical information about traveling in Japan.

This blog helps international visitors solve common problems they may face in Japan. I write about pocket WiFi, eSIMs, transportation, cashless payments, shopping, local rules, and other useful travel topics.

My goal is to make your trip to Japan easier, more comfortable, and less confusing by providing clear and practical information.
