I am Japanese grownup in Japan but now living in the UK. It is a very interesting episode. Thank you for sharing about it. I am working in a restaurant but as you said American tourist tend to trying to customise their menu. Once, one lady asked about patty only(no buns) for our sliders and she was so upset and looks confusing when our chef refused due to it is not part of our menu. Also Americans want to change choose veggies in salad or garnish etc more then the people from other countries 😅 I am looking forward for tipping culture episode. As in Japan and UK we tend to add service charges on top of your expenses, although in uk it is optional and technically you can remove if you don’t want, and not in Japan as it is part of your bill and mandatory. On the other hand, service charges in UK is going for employees (by the law) but in Japan it is just going to the company as par of sales. And in the past, actually Japan has tipping culture as well, 心づけ kokoroduke. And still works in some industries like ryokan, wedding, funeral, constructions and more. But they are fading with modarnization. So I’m very interested how you guys talk about this topic! Thank you again for interesting video!
nothing beats round tables! and lighter wood colors!

The traditional Japanese beds are what Japanese do. If you hate it, don't stay in Ryokan. I understand what you are saying, but you can't tell it to them because thats what they do. They are not trying bothering you. That's Japnanese lifestyle.

I disagree with your opinion I like Ryokan except the bed making part. Like Austin and Aurther mentioned it's unconfortable to feel someone was in the room. The objective of the Ryokan is the guest could relax. You can always tell the staff to not make the bed.It will reduce the staff's task, totally win-win situation.

Yeah you should never complain about the way Japanese companies make you work because that’s the way Japanese people have been doing. if you are not ok with it, then leave Japan. I’m sad there are such stupid guys like you living next to me.
