Things Okay in Japan but Illegal Around the World

Use my code PAOLO15 at to get $15 off your first Bokksu Japanese snack box!

Shocking Laws okay in Japan, but illegal around the world. So I’ve made videos before on things you can’t do in Japan because of laws or unknown laws that could get you arrested, but in this video I wanted to switch things up a little and share with you some things that are legal in Japan but may be illegal in other parts of the world. Many think that Japan is a very strict country, but when you hear some of these Japanese laws you may be scratching your head. And to be clear from the start, I don’t recommend doing any of these things. I’m not providing legal advice and this is for entertainment only.

We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.


We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.


We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.


Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.


Want to grab some great gear? We have used Osprey Packs for years & swear by them. Check them out here

???? Get My Top 100 Travel Pics FREE!

Can you believe that you have to pay to use public toilets, and to drink water in Europe?! What is the deal with cigarettes being fashionable? And guys are wearing short shorts?

It's about time someone addresses the cultural differences between the USA and Europe!

After just finishing a 6-week Eurotrip -- I've now spent more than 1 year of my life in Europe, and visited every single country on the continent (yes, all 45 countries!)

While many things are similar between American and European culture, there are plenty of little (and BIG) differences that I'd like to bring to your attention in this video!

It took me 6 weeks of compiling this footage, writing this script, and editing this video... so I hope you like it! And if you enjoy, please share with your friends :)

Visit Japan: The Money in Japan Explained for Tourists

What tourists should know about money in Japan.
Heading to Japan and Not Sure About the Money? Well the use the Yen in Japan. You will see it in coins and bills and you can use cards in a number of locations. Your biggest problem will be finding an ATM that accepts non-Japanese cards. To fight that you will need to visit ATMs at convenience stores.
Cash is king in Japan, but you can also use your Suica and Pasmo metro cards to pay for a number of products as well.
When you pay for your meal at a restaurant you do not pay the waiter directly. You may pay at the register when you leave. Also you don't tip in Japan.

Top 25 Things that Shock Foreigners in Japan

Japanese Culture can seem pretty weird to a first time visitor. In this video I discuss the top 25 things that shock foreigners in Japan including crowded subways, timeliness, tiny hotel rooms, face masks, and more! After you watch this video you’ll be prepared to embrace Japan’s culture, and not be as shocked by it!

1 - Face Masks
In Japan they rarely take sick days, so when they are sick they are expected to wear a mask. Many people also wear masks to not get sick from others. You’ll see people on the train, subway, sidewalk, pretty much everywhere wearing face masks.

2 - Sooo many people
Tokyo is crowded, particularly the train stations.

3 - Crazy work hours
You’ll see people in business suits around at all hours.. 7am to midnight. Because the Japanese seem to almost always be working, or at a work social. Death from too much work is so commonplace in Japan that there is a word for it -- karoshi. There is a national karoshi hotline, a karoshi self-help book and a law that funnels money to the widow and children of a salaryman (it's almost always a man) who works himself into an early karoshi for the good of his company. Among 2,207 work-related suicides in 2007, the most common reason (672 suicides) was overwork, according to government figures released in June.

4 - They sleep anywhere and everywhere

5 - Everybody is always dressed up
Men in business suits, women in high heels, all the time.

6 - Time is really important
There is no such thing as “fashionably late” in Japan. If trains are more than 30 seconds to a minute late they start apologizing for being late. If you are more than 5 minutes late for a dinner reservation you might as well forget you even had it. Want to check in to a hotel early? Hah! If the check-in time is 3pm, then 3pm exactly is when they will let you check-in.

7 - Public Transportation is Really on time
Even busses! And it’s not like 8:30 -- it’s 8:34 and the busses will show up at that exact minute. The bus won’t leave until it’s the exact time to go. Even a shuttle bus to a hotel, if the departure time is 2pm, and all passengers are onboard at 1:45pm, the bus driver will sit there and watch the clock until it strikes exactly 2pm.

8 - And their stores close really early
Typical store closing time is 7 or 8pm… even when 100,000 people are walking by. And they close promptly. When Japan’s nightlife starts, their daytime stuff closes. No 24 hour supermarkets, they close at 8pm when the department stores close.

9 - And their ATMS close too
Seriously… why does the ATM close at 7pm? And when its closed, its really closed, like a with a door that rolls down.

10 - Crazy small hotel rooms
Japanese hotels are masters of efficient space use. It IS the home of the capsule hotel

11 - Pillows are hard
They aren’t full of feathers, they are full of Buckwheat Hulls. Kind of like the shells of sunflower seeds. They are the opposite of soft. But they are supposed to allow for more air circulation.

12 - You have to take off your shoes everywhere
Of course when you go to someones house, but there’s more!
Even at the dressing room of a store -- and make sure they point the right way!
Some traditional hotels you take your shoes off right at the door
I was there for “work” once, and I had to take off my shoes to enter the office
So don’t wear your socks with holes
Oh and there are toilet slippers

13 - Swim caps for swimming pools

14 - Insane Prices

15 - Little Kids Walking to School by Themselves

16- Excessive Packaging

17 - Being naked in front of others

18 - Wet Hands

19 - There aren’t any trash cans

20 - Amount of bicycles

21 - Japanglish

22 - Karaoke

23 - Purses left to save seats. Story about train laptop.

24 - Lots of really human intensive jobs

25 - French maids on the street

Should I Leave Japan? The question I never thought I'd ask. #tourism #japanlife #foreigners

Friends of the channel know I rarely complain or post anything negative about my home country, Japan. Call it a bit of depression or bout of culture shock, I have to admit to having been a bit down in the dumps about Japan lately, and I explain why in this video.

No, I don't suddenly dislike Japan or Japanese culture/people, but I do have some reasons why the place hasn't felt as....friendly as it used to.
