  1. I get lost and frustrated when I try to get to the opposite side of a train tracks. I’m like do I go underground or above or on land to get there? I end up in circles somehow and back to where I started. Lol

  2. I feel like someone wants me to be alone. Wants to isolate me from everyone. Have no social life. Because they are jealous. They don’t want me to be lively so they kill me often. And now I’ve got insomnia.

  3. Only in Japan will you find a quiet unattended railway station in the middle of the nowhere that only gets a few trains a day that has a clean waiting room that is open to use. Probably cleaned & looked after by local retirees (retirees do this all over Japan, in both country and city areas) 👍

  4. Been to many of these rural unmanned stations in the Japanese countryside with just my JR Pass. Each one of them has their own charm.

    Unless you're renting a car like John has, then it wouldn't be a problem visiting these unmanned stations. Otherwise you would need to do your homework to know the train times for each station, or you'll be stuck for hours, or even overnight, waiting for the next train to come.

  5. Wow! A fox! I swear you must be the animal whisperer. Now you have to think of some good why did the fox cross the road jokes. Also, I would never think you are in Japan – it looks like you are in the middle of Kansas.

  6. I really like these quaint small stations. And it’s in typically tidy condition you’d expect in Japan. And nice to see the fox, if that’s what it was. One of my favourite animals.

  7. Can we negotiate a crowd fund to freshen up the train station with some Tremclad in exchange for an onsite OiJ vending machine and prominent logo placement? Love the small towns John.
