I agree absolutely. It triggers an anxiety issue. I find that if I really have to take a piss or shit or throw up because I've been drinking too much and holding it in for a long time the discipline I maintained falls apart within the last few feet of reaching a restroom as if my subconscious mind is prematurely saying "let it go!" I've had many close calls but fortunately never pissed or shit my pants in public. One time I did have to make a rapid departure from a night owl bus service to throw up on the curb. Not my proudest moment but it was at an international airport with restrooms I could clean up in and catch the next bus an hour later.

I think what this translates to is that: When you grow up, you forget about all the good things in life. I'm made it in life, and should take the time to smell the roses and enjoy the finer things in life. Thanks to this video, I realize I better take the time and treat myself for some well deserved R&R thanks to you [ travel geek ] The Asian translation of google just does not get the message across in the right way it seems grammar wise as the structure does not put the meaning there most of the time with machine translation.

@Slackware1995 10 ай бұрын

The bus gives a choice between claustrophia and the ability use a phone OR using ac and looking out the window. The dome only gives visual privacy, it doesn't block sounds or smells. No on-board restroom and frequent rest stops means little chance of decent sleep. I think i'd use an express train.

I strongly agree with the statement 'No takoyaki, no life' as I was also born in Osaka. My favorite place to get takoyaki is 'Wanaka' as they make it softer with a dashi-rich taste. Recently, I discovered 'JZOOS' at Haneda airport which is a new vending machine selling fresh orange juice. I was amazed by the taste, as I had never had fresh orange juice from a vending machine before. The Namba area, where I used to frequently walk around in my youth, has changed a lot. Many neon signs have been replaced with LED lights, making the area brighter and sometimes overwhelming. I appreciate seeing the nostalgic scenery of the area and have subscribed to your channel.

In Japan, bus companies have established independent rest periods for drivers and crew members of night buses and sightseeing buses based on the regulations set by the Ministry of Labor. The bus companies inform bus users that the drivers and crews have their own rest time separate from the rest time for passengers through explanations on the bus companies' websites, at the reception desk, in the brochures, by the drivers and crews before and during the bus service, and by direct announcements in the buses through audio the customer. Bus users, who are the customers of the bus companies, receive and recognize information in this way...?!
