Die Kunst ist eine Erfindung des Teufels. Unterwasser Meschenjagd.
These kind of quotes and others, I see nearly every day on Japans streets. I guess its kind of popular to have something German written on your shirt.
So what did I do the last couple days, I stayed another day with that karaoke dude in Fukaya. At that day it rained like hell and I got wet like I was swimming through the Atlantic ocean. That guy let me eat one of the most disgusting things I have ever eaten, but he like's it so much, that this is the reason why he gets up every morning. By the way check out "Kids in the hall". It is funny.
The next day I couchsurfed at this couple's place, Drew and Alice. So what do you expect when somebody invites you to their home, at least the floor, but what did I get, a whole house. Yes, because they are both english teachers and it is a common thing here that the school pays you the house. So, two teachers, two houses. I stayed at the so called playhouse. There where tons of vinyl, lots of instruments + a whole studio. It was great!! I stayed there for two nights, and then I was on my way to Nagoya. I went with the so called "Bullet Train", means 600 kilometers in 2 hours, isn't that great?!
There I stayed with a guy called Justin, on Thursday he turned 31, and he had an birthday party. I got to know lots of really nice people, from all parts of the world. I ended up driving my bike fairly drunk through the city of Nagoya and it was great.
Yesterday, I took the train to Osaka, and tomorrow I'm going to Hiroshima.
In mini meini mo, da David.
P.S.: the japanes word "nama" means, raw, draft (beer), unplugged, and sex with no condom

I am Johnny Cash and I wanna fuck you like an animal
Karaoke!! Finally, I have been to one of the famous karaoke bars in Tokyo, and it was GREAT!
So, this new couchsurfer, Wade from Canada, who have also stayed with Steve from New Jersey, asked me if I would like to go with him and his friends to this karaoke bar and of course I said yes. Cool thing is, you kind of rent a room in that bar, so your just on your own, and everthing you drink is included, something like "koma-saufen". After on of my quickest beers I have ever drank it was my turn to sing something. And I sang, "Its my life" by everybody knows "Bon Jovi" and I was horrible, really, if Bon Jovi was dead, he would turn around in his grave. Next song for me, "Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song", by the way the dumbest song to sing for karakoe, and two duetts "Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison Blues" and "Nine Inch Nails - Closer" (which was quite intense as you can imagine).
I also wanted to sing "Rock me Amadeus - Falco" but there was not enough time. Too bad. Well, it was great fun and when I am back in Austria we have to go to one of those karaoke bars!!!
I am feeling like Bill Murray, David

In Tokyo driving should be called stopping
So, i wake up the next morning, at about 3pm. I read something, I ate the best rae salmon I have ever had, get my stuff organized, I simply relaxed. At about 12pm the couchsurfer came home from his work and asked if I would liked to join him, he rented this car, wanted to pick up this girl and he wanted to show me this incredible nightview of Tokyo. Though I have already been in bed and I was fairly tired, I decided to come with him.
Sounds all great, but, BUT we never saw the nightview, because when we came to this place it was already 5 am and the sun was already shining. He said something about this buddha statue (which actually is quite impressive) we have to see and again I thought okay cool, should not take too long.
I was mistaken.. at 14 pm after a night spent in a car with a chinese japanse couchsurfer and a english teacher from florida, I was finally able to fell again deadlike into my bed... a bed not exatcly, it was again the floor.

Endlich
So, I`m going to start from the beginning.
There is one thing that`s really funny everytime I`m flying away... showing my passport. It`s everwhere the same, the securities on the borders are just laughing out loud, sometimes followed by a nice "hihi, what happend to you?? hihi" and finally waving me through into their country.
So, I`m finally in Japan, at Narita Airport, here I come, nobody can stop me! Nobody? There`s somone, something. The ATM (for those who don`t know: Bankomat) First I tried my luck at an only japanese machine, then I wasn`t able to find out how, or in wich direction I have to put my bankomatkarte into that thing. When I finally was able to get some cash out of the machine, I withdrawed the crazy amout of 1,4 euros (2000 Yen). After that, my Bankomatkarte wouldn`t give me any more money, because I`ve already taken to much of my account. After that I decided to stick to my creditcard. With finally 100,000 yen (70 euro) in my pocket, I bought a chai tea latte, and a new york cheesecakesomething (at starbucks, mhhhhh) and I was on my way into the city, to the Tokyo station. Oh yes, after I bought, that chai tea I realised 100,000 yen aren`t 70 euros, but 700 euros (I felt, and still feel, quite uncomfortable with so much money in my pockets)
So, Mr. Liftinger David is now in Tokyo. "puhh, what do I need? Sleep!" Unfortunately, I had to wait about 10 hours to meet up with my couchsurfer. So I decided to just go into a park and take a nap. Sadly, this park I was going to, was the imperial park, right in front of the imperial palace. Nobody was allowed to sit on the grass, not to mention sleeping on that grass. Lots of police man and securities made sure that no one even touched that grass. So I had to look for another park, happily I found one, right next to the imperial palace, with some shogun statue in the middle. So I finally could lay down, and took a nap (with some crazy dreams).
So I wake up again, totally confused where I am (oh yes, tokyo) and decide to get something to eat. So I walked around in that area and had to find out, that the menus in restaurantes are only written in japanese, no english at all. After walking around like a strayed dog, i finally got to some japanese sandwich thing and just pointed with my finger at something delicious, gave the cashier some money and swallowed that thing as fast as possible, like Andi would do. That was sooo good.
After spending the day near the Tokyo station and the imperial palace, I was on my way to the Tokyo tower.
There I met up with my, living and working in Japan, french couchsurfer, Louis. A huge, really nice, 2 meters guy. We went to his apartment (relly tiny) and I could finally take a shower and just fell deadlike into my bed. (not really a bed, it was more like... yes, the floor, but it was great and I slept like a king!!)
