It is very common for expact in Europe to speak 3+ languages. Usually Italians and Spanish speak each other languages if you have friends that speak both. English is mandatory to find at least the first job. Now add the language of the country you work in (which a minimal level is necessary) and possible language you might be interested in. Voila' you have almost a polyglot in front of you. Remember this: learning a language is relatively simple, master it is the big step many people don't take.

When my father was in the Air Force we were stationed in Japan. One of the first things that I learned as a military dependent was to be polite and kind to the people in the country you are visiting. My father taught me that, whenever a person goes to another country, that person becomes a representative of their own country. So don’t go to another country and act like a loud, rude, entitled American. Don’t visit a different country and speak or act like a racist. Be on your best behavior. Don’t talk too much. Learn a few basic words in that country’s language. Even learning to say Hello, Nice to meet you, and Thank you go a long way with people because it shows that you respect them. And especially, don’t be rude about the food! Don’t make jokes or insult the native foods. Don’t eat it if you don’t want, but don’t be insulting.

In Canada, or at least in Quebec, It would depend of which type of place you would enter and if it's convenien or not? Like most of the time if there is a lot of in and out going to happend, we would tell people to keep their shoes on if they're clean enough. Usually in houses people take their shoes off because we wouldn't want to ruin floring if we have a little rock stuck in some cracks of the shoes. If people have pets and they have a really indoor/outdoor life stile, they could tell you to just keep them so you don't ruin your socking or dirty your feet.

In the UK we keep our shoes on. There is always a mat outside the house and no one walks in with dirty shoes. For me it's annoying to take off my shoes and put them on again just to visit a house. Also the houses are often not well insulated so your feet get cold quickly without shoes.

The english speaking part is so true. Foreigners take it personally when Japanese answer in english but from all the talking with my Japanese friends, even random Japanese people I meet I realized that some Japanese really just want to communicate in english which personally to me is comforting because my japanese isn't good and I need a lot of courage to speak japanese so when my friends only speak japanese with me when I want to really takes off the burden and I feel comfortable with them. I understand that it's annoying for some but for me as a foreigner that wants to talk with Japanese, it's personally comforting.

(Metro, Train) Don't make the noise (ringtone) when you text people Don't eat while you are walking down the street and in the metro (It depends for the train), it makes the street so dirty! Don't block the street (standing in the street suddenly with his/her girlfriend/boyfriend, friends or family and occupy the whole pavement) Take off the shoes wherever you go in (temples, people's houses etc.,) Don't jaywalk (so many foreigners like to jaywalk) Keep your table clean (very awful to see people making the table so dirty after having a meal) and return the tableware to the collection point Don't jump the queue and keep a proper social distance while queuing.

The doctor from Sri Lanka basically said the point Which almost most of us Sri Lankan adore .When foreigners come to our country we always try to give them priority and treat them with huminity,friendship and with the best of our hospitality Well said♥️ and when we go to other countries we should apply those throughout our journey in that country toooo😊

I absolutely love your content TAKASHI! I am planning to go to Japan after serving in the army in britain to see how it is since I fell in love with the Japanese culture at first sight (anime dragged my attention) and want to learn more about Japanese culture - your content especially helps me to understand Japanese people prior to actually coming there. So, thank you タカシくん!

Takashi san. I very glad that you were able to interview a Sri Lankan. Japan and Sri Lanka have had a very close mutual relationship for over 50 years. What my Sri lankan brother said was absolutely 💯 % true. I wish all our Sri Lankans are able to listen to his advice and behave appropriately not only in Japan but in Sri Lanka and every country you go to as a foreigner. I love the Japanese people and Culture and have being to Japan many times as a business visitor, though my business partners are very friendly, strangers don't open out to South Asians and brown skin people as they should. That's the sad part. But anyways Japan has come way forward from the early 2000's to the present era. People do speak more English now.

Thailand is a wonderful place. I went by train to Chang Mai and rode elephants through the jungle to the northern hills tribes where we stayed in straw huts. Bangkok has golden temples and a river boat trip not to be missed. You will see monks of all ages there. Have a great time.

Nice video! I think it could be really interesting to speak to foreigners in Japan who have been living there for an extended period of time. There's a lot of things that get spoken about a quite a bit (not being loud on the train, no littering, etc.) and they're the more surface level, obvious differences people see. If you could speak to someone who has been there for 2 years, 5 years, 10, etc. I think it would be a really interesting conversation! :)
