This was really useful! I'm planning to study abroad in Japan next year, so this video was a godsend! I'll probably be rewatching it constantly until I have the Japanese address system memorized😂!
That was just what i was looking for, so we don't get completely stranded over there when we visit later this year :D Thank you so much! It really makes much more sense when presented like this :)
Thank you so much! When sending mail to Japan from US, the postal clerk always asks me why the address is written backwards & what is the street..I never knew till now!!
@Therealunconnected Welcome to Japan! It can be so confusing in the beginning… Give yourself time and ask for help. I do intercultural training and coaching. If you’re interested to find out more, let’s talk (contact@begloby.com)
Have you tried all the obvious like input in English, input in Japanese? Checked all the spelling, incl. if the chome etc. is properly hyphened? If you can’t find the smallest unit right away I’d start trying to find the bigger units and the zoom in to see if you can find it. But sometimes it’s possible that a chome or building is not properly mapped. Want to share an example you couldn’t find?

How exciting for your possible semester in Japan! Happy this was helpful, and don't worry. I've been here for 6 years and still learning every day :)

So glad it was helpful. Anything else you’re looking to know before coming over? Wishing you a great trip already!

I really wish you didn't have the music in the background because I have to focus so hard to understand and the music is just distracting. 😅😂
Thank you for the feedback. 🙏 I’ll pay more attention to it next time and hope you were still able to learn something from the video.
This was super helpful!! Thank you!
So glad to hear, thank you for the feedback!
Sometimes I copy an address to the Google Maps, but it cannot find it. What could be the reason. And how to work around it.
