Filipino Programmer | Philippines

It’s 3AM, I’m ready to go to Manila for my flight. I came in Ninoy Aquino International Airport at around 6:30AM, ate my breakfast and went inside the airport at 7AM. I had no trouble checking in my lagguages, going to Immigration booth. I left Philippines at around 9:20AM boarding JAL, bound for Narita Airport at 2:25PM. The flight was wonderful, it was very comfortable, most of the time I was sleeping. I arrived at Narita Airport around 2:10PM 15 minutes early. Weather in Japan is cloudy and still cold, I meet Jay one of the employees of my company here, and went at the apartment by riding a bus going to Shinjuku station and taxi to the apartment. After that he gave me a short tour of the neighborhood and we ate dinner at Jonathan’s. Went I went back home, I rained, glad I was able get home before the rain falls. I met my roommate Max and another engineer Nedy which is leaving just two rooms away from our apartment.

What are useful information I have learned?

Taxi’s in Japan are very different from Philippines. In Japan you do not have to open the door since will open the door for you automatically. Taxi’s are equipped with a GPS system, which enables the driver to go anywhere in the vicinity just by entering the destination’s address.

When riding a bus with lagguages, lagguages are tagged and you will receive a small identification tag for you to claim when exiting the bus.
