Day one in Tokyo 07.02.2014 Part 2

After arrival at the Narita Airport I was glad that all what my japanese friends said about free wify was true. So I could tell my friend, I was going to meet, that I survived that 15 hours flight. 
Even everybody may think its complicated to find the way in japan coz all that mysterious Kajis, I was able to find the way to the transfer train easiely....thanks to all that nice pictures that make it possible even for a 5 years old child not to loose the way. 
I choose to take the NEX Train.....coz the train looked really stylish on the pictures of the airport website :-)
A very nice lady with great english skills explained me everything  - where i have to go; when the train departures and so. While waiting time for the train I noticed a - YAH I know its maybe stupid, but for germans its amazing - wending machine. The only drink I knew was cola. So I took something and guess what!....AMAZINGLY tasty! Milktea! - There is no better drink in japanese wending machines than this - so far my opinion ^^
The train was absolutely clean and the service lady with her super cute "sumimasen..." made my day.
But I didn't buy anything :)
I thought on the way to Tokyo - soon there will be this mega metropole and I will get lost. But for my own surprise the train track and the scenery around it doesn't gave me the feeling I am on the way inside a giant city. Everything I could see through the train windows seemed so peaceful and silent. For sure I noticed when I came closer to the central, but anyway it was different to what I expected. I get off the train and was so concentrated to all the notes I made before I left the house in Hamburg that I didn't felt like I am in Tokyo now. I was really afraid to loose my way. But I found directly the hostel in Asakusa. Its name was K's House. First real focused contact with japan - apart of that wending machine - was that 'Tatami' door. I was received by a young girl that also could speak fluently english. Particularly I remember to her cute 'eto' after every phrase she said. Comparable to 'well...'. I brought my luggage to the room with the 2p bunk bed. First I waned to do was charging my phone but my charger - even I had an adapter - didn't work. So I asked in the reception for the way to the next electronic store. Found it easy....but to find the right lvl was hard work. I asked many nice persons that make clear to me in an absolutely friendly way.....that they have no idea ^^
The one that could speak not one word english could finally help me. I showed her by a hand move like connecting my phone to my charger what I was looking for.  She took out a map of the shopping Mal and pointed on the lvl. 
I choose a cute one with a face on it.  Super stylish, not cheap (made in japan), for ....taddaaa...just 1400 円.
Back to hostel and waiting for my friend. Coz I became bored in my room after 10 minutes I went to the entrance hall. A small room with one table. Some there guest where sitting there together with the hostel stuff an drank plum wine - so I joined.

So short and so nice: Tip tapping I was tip tapping in the dark tip tapping I was tip tapping in the park the sound of the leaves when my feet hit the ground the sound of the leaves when my feet bounce around in the dark, in the park.

Watashi wa sore o yaru! - 私はそれをやる！

Chapter 1.0: As the most of you already know I am trying to learn japanese. My goal for the next time is to pass the JLPT N5 test. A nice user from Interpals gave me a helpful feedback regarding to this blog and said to me, that she would like me to write about my japanese learning process. So I think this is a great idea for a new main content of my blog. Sooo... first of all I try to give an explanation about the reason for my decision to walk this hard way of learning a so difficult language. At the beginning there where the animes (of course - I think all people who try to learn japanese like animes and use them as a real helpful way to get some input). Later I bought my first Manga. I was so facinated by the fact of reading it from back to front. This was my personal first contact, that made me interested in japan, to such a different culture. So I begann to recherche about this country and its population. Later then coocking started to be an importend thing in my life - so...
