Reflections on Life in Japan by Taras A. Sak:
Gift-giving in Japan II: Breaking the cycle

So far, I have written several entries in this column dealing in one
way or another with the concept of the "gift" in Japanese culture: on
the importance of souvenirs ("Omiyage" in Japanese), on the generosity
of Japanese people (particularly to visitors or guests), and even on
the necessity for showing gratitude toward one's ancestors and past
generations. It would seem that Japanese society is, in many ways,
built upon the notion of gift giving-not to mention the debt or
obligation that one incurs when accepting such gifts.

TERRIE'S JOB TIPS:
Cost of Living in Tokyo 2008 - Part Four: Low Budget

Back in 1983 when I first came to Japan on a working holiday visa,
I was a backpacker with the experience of having hitchhiked half way
around the world (I never made it past Turkey, what with the Iranian
crisis back then). So arriving in Japan I was determined to live as
cheaply as possible and use the savings to pay for language lessons
and travel. Now, 25 years later, I'm pleased to be able to report that
backpackers arriving in Japan these days don't pay that much more than
I was back then - although of course salaries haven't moved up that
much either!
