Currently resident in Kyiv, Ukraine and have spent the last 14+ years working on economic development projects in Central & Eastern European Countries (CEECs).

Czech Republic 1994/95 – lived & worked in Plzen and Prague. It was a shitty job, but someone had to do it.......

Georgia 1996 – lived & worked in Kutaisi in western Georgia (passing through Tbilisi on the way in/out – oh the delights of the old Soviet-era terminal building, and the Tupolev 34a that at the time was the only plane flying into Georgia from Europe). And something of a cultural & experiential contrast to the previous job in the Czech Republic………..

North-West Russia 1997-99 – lived & worked in St Petersberg, Gatchina, Vyborg, Tikhvin. Shorter working visits to Tosno, Lodeynoye Pole and Luga (I won’t be hurrying back to Luga any time soon)

Ukraine 1999-2007 – lived & worked in: Kyiv, Kirovograd, Mykolayiv, Ivano Frankivsk, Lutsk. Shorter working visits to: Bila Tserkva, Lviv, Ternopol, Vinnitsa, Poltava, Donetsk, Dnepropetrovsk, Kremenchuk, Krivoy Rog, Cherkassy, Uzhgorod, Odessa, Sevastopol, Simferopol, Yalta, Sumy, Lugansk.

Macedonia 2002 – lived and worked in Ohrid & Tetovo, with shorter working visit to Gostivar

Moldova 2002 & 2004 – lived & worked in Ungheni, with short stays in Chisinau on the way in and out.

Bosnia Herzegovina 2002 – lived and worked for a short time in Sarajevo

Have driven my little Mini from the UK to Kyiv (and back) twice now, and tootle around Ukraine in my right-hand drive car attracting a great deal of attention (unfortunately from the militia as well as the general population)

Hi! Let me introduce myself. I am Indonesian-born, Singapore-based, and global-minded woman. I fell in love with travel since my first visit to Europe. Some of my bucket list are closely related to experiencing the world's beauty a.k.a travelling. I specifically love to visit European countries, but I'm currently more knowledgeable about South East Asia. My favorite destination so far is Prague: it is so exotic yet simple at the same time. I also love Venice for its sweet romantic atmosphere. Another hobby of mine is to travel solo by train. Trains are a nice way to get in touch with the local population, and usually they are reasonably comfortable. As a budget-conscious, I prefer hostels where I can share room with other travelers. They are often good and exceed expectations. Drawback is on privacy though, for example roommate can bring in opposite sex to the room and make noise. I also keep my eyes on travel deals website.

The world is so huge that even if I were to spend my whole life traveling, I would not be able to cover the whole world. Plus, I still have to earn money for my traveling expenses. But still, I will not give up my dream of traveling around the world. It helps one to gain more life experience and widen ones horizon. It will be the best if one can do backpack travel because it is cheaper and one can experience the life of people living at that place.

My name is Kira Wampler, and I currently live in Menlo Park, California and work at Intuit in Mountain View (California). Any QuickBooks questions, let me know!

I grew up in St. Petersburg, Florida and have lived in Washington, DC; Antigua,Guatemala; Toronto, Canada; San Francisco, California; Hanoi, Vietnam, and Durham, North Carolina. They were all different, but San Francisco remains one of my favorite cities in the world, even though we can't afford to live here!

My travel bug started when I studied abroad in Sumatra, Indonesia as an undergrad and continued when I started my own company sending students to Central America and South America to learn Spanish. After that, I ran the international division of a handbag company, so spent a lot of time in Asia, Europe, South America and Canada. And, my husband and I fell in love with Vietnam after a visit in 2000, so we lived in Hanoi from 2001-2002, traveling a bit in Cambodia while we were at it. We visited Ecuador in March 2005, and we just returned from a trip to Oaxaca (city), Mexico in December.

Any questions about living/working in Central America or Asia, please let me know. Any interest in traveling to some of the countries mentioned above without articles, let me know, and I'll get working on the articles. I am still new to wikis, so bear with me if I make mistakes.

Greetings
Howyadooin!

My name is Erik B. Anderson. I have lived in New Jersey, both near New York City and the Philadelphia area. I also know a few things about the Lehigh Valley, which is not far from where I am now.

As of late October 2008, I have started establishing myself as a kind of promoter for several of the businesses in Hackettstown and the surrounding areas. I'm not exactly fully established yet, but I have relationships with several of them. I give Wikivoyage a lot of credit for making this possible. So I guess this is what you would call full disclosure. If there is any confusion, please contact me somehow.

Places I have been

 * Hong Kong, 1987
 * Ghana, 1995
 * Baja California in Mexico, 1999, 2007
 * Jamaica, 2005
 * and all over the United States, from my early childhood to the present.

I would very much like to see the Himalayas, the Andes and other Mountainous regions. Mongolia sounds fascinating, too.

I have several family members who are also experienced world travellers. I think, between the lot of us, we have been in every region in the entire world, except Siberia and Antarctica.

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology. I qualified for a minor in Geography and Anthropology in college, but getting the paperwork right wasn't the highest priority in my life at the time. I worked as a Public Relations Intern for the Chester County Historical Society Library & Museum in West Chester University. I didn't get any credit, though. I did it for the experience, and I am using it now every day. I have a strong interest in politics and now that Barack Obama is a responsible leader, I feel safe to solve problems.

My father died of what the Coroner called "Progressive Supranuclear Palsy" in 2003. I am finally coming to terms with the fact that he was quite a man. Please visit his memorial flag in Palmer Park in Long Valley, New Jersey. It flies high over a number of nice baseball fields and a golf course around that is coming soon. It is dedicated to his service to scouting and the "Youth of Long Valley". It makes our area a safe place. I believe that.

Warm Regards,

Erik B. Anderson

I'm an astrophysicist from Oslo in Norway. Also a mountaineer, which includes being a certified glacier guide, and an orienteer, which means I run in whatever forest I find anywhere...

Before creating an account, I created a page about Pisac in Peru, and a page about the right to access, a right enjoyed in Norway which grants people the right to go and camp whereever they like, somewhat like making the land a Common... It also makes cheap travel in Norway feasible, allthough it is a high-cost country.

I've also edited a few things on different pages, right now just for Peru and Norway.

Right now, most stuff about Norway has been written by Norwegians, but Norwegians tend to be very curious about what others have to say about us, so do not hesitate to write!

Currently living in London, I have been travelling almost all my life. Despite of this (or perhaps because of this) I actually hate travelling. What I mean when I say I hate travelling is that I hate travelling for it's own sake and that I hate the process of getting to my destination. I like being in places, i like seeing people and I like going somewhere with a purpose. So you could say I'm an anti-tourism traveller. My contributions will focus on the practical side of things rather than dealing with sight-seeing.

Hello there,

My name is Tobias Maasland. I was for several years a software programmer. Right now I'm travelling for a while.

My aim is to participate a little into Wikivoyage, as the page helped me out. Or better: The users, who created all this great content.

So I put some information into the wiki, at least for the cities where I've been and where I couldn't find information because either there was no page or no such section. I always try to fill at least every section from the small city template with two or three pieces of information when I stay in a city.

Contact
I do have a blog (in German, but there is an English tab at the top with some options), where I write about my travels. You can find it at http://www.tobiasmaasland.de/blog.

Also from time to time I'm present at some messenger systems.

Koh Chang is situated to the east of Thailand in the province of Trat (around 315 kilometers from Bangkok) on the border of Cambodia. Koh Chang is about 30 kilometers long, almost 14 kilometers wide, and 217 square kilometers. Around 80 percent of Koh Chang, along with an archipelago of 52 islands, is part of the Koh Chang Marine National Park. Koh Chang is the largest island in the Marine Natural Park. The Marine National Park has a total area of 650 square meters and 70% is marine. Clear waters of various blue shades surround the island while a terrain of high mountains and steep cliffs provide magnificent scenic points. Koh Chang has idyllic beaches and bays for vacation. The beaches and bays of Koh Chang are like a fiction story. These are beaches and bays on Koh Chang.

Wai Chek Beach

 The most famous beach on Koh Chang, White Sand Beach (Had Sai Khao), is where most visitors get together. There are restaurants, bars, and pubs scattered on White Sand Beach for nighttime entertainment. Klong Prao Beach (Had Klong Prao) is distinct because of its more serene environment. Kai Bae Beach (Had Kai Bae) is quiet and calm beach. Bang Bao Bay (Ao Bang Bao) and Salak Phet Bay (Ao Salak Phet) are fishing villages and also a gateway to other islands around Koh Chang. House styles are built on water. On land, beautiful waterfalls amid unspoiled natural surroundings, pristine beaches, rich marine resources, 52 outlaying tropical islands, and excellent seafood are amongst the many reasons to stay at hotels and resorts in Koh Chang, Thailand. Most of hotels and resorts in Koh Chang are thatched roof bungalows sitting on spacious land and long beaches. At the same time, plush hotels and resorts providing luxury services with modern architecture and amenities are fast becoming more numerous. Various activities are available on the island such as kayak, canoe, snorkeling, elephant treking, or boat trip to other smaller islands of the Koh Chang Marine National Park.

About Me
Hi, my name is Jo and I have lived in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England all my life. My interests include: tennis, drama & the theatre, fashion, socialising, and of course travelling.

Wikivoyage
The main reason I joined Wikivoyage was because I wanted to create a page for Stevenage as it suffers a bad reputation and most tourists don't go near it so they no little about Stevenage's hidden gems. I am currently a docent for Stevenage, as someone ((WT-en) Maj) suggested that I should be. So far, I wrote all the original content on the Stevenage article and am looking forward to other people adding to the content. I also regularly edit and update Wikipedia's article on Stevenage.

Docent
As I previously mentioned, I am a docent for Stevenage. If you wish to contact me please leave a comment on my talk page.

DOCENT I've joined WikiTravel in Feb 2011 because people were asking me things about our place so I figured why not put it in the web. One edit and I forgot all about it until I accidentally discovered my complete name in an attribution from a travel site about that single edit I made.

Easton, MA Is a very small town about 30 minutes outside of Boston. In this town its not exactly the everyone knows everyone type of town, its just big enough so you don't have that extremely small town feel. The crime in Easton is very low making it a safe place to raise you children.

Eat There are many different types of foods here in easton you name it mexican, italian, chinese or american we have it all here. The restaurants in this area aren't big named places that everyone knows of but the food is just as good if not better. There are plenty of fast food restaurants if you just want something quick and easy, there is a wendy's and a burger king, but plenty of dunkin doughnuts.

education There are two elementary schools that are combined to eachother which are olmstead and the richardson schools, but only one middle school though so I don't know how that works with the number of student wise. The high school of the town is named oliver ames after the founder of easton. All of the schools are connected in one big area of town which makes it easier on parents with children of different ages. Allowing them to be at multiple places at once whenvere they need to be. Then for colleges in the area right at the border between easton and brockton there is a college called stonehill, which is a division 2 private college home of the skyhawks.

Attractions There is one really big park or trail as you call it smack in the middle of town. It doesn't cost anything to go to but you might want to get there pretty early because on very nice days stay at home parents like to go there to let their kids play around. There are many historic land marks in this area that you might want to check out as well, the history of easton is displayed everywhere especially downtown. Drink     There aren't that many bars around this area but you can find a liquor store every two miles or so. There is one sports bar that everyone seems to love and goes to for any sporting event, which is Mcguires bar and grill. Not only is their food great but they have tv's everywhere so no one can miss whatever game they want to see.

Community It seems to me that everyone comes together as a community whenver anything goes wrong so you get a sense of just having one big family. The people are very friendly and the diversity of the town just keeps growing and growing and the number of residents keep expanding and expanding.

Bad
I will try to cover topics that I consider not recommended for traveling in this section.

Ugly
I will try to cover topics that I consider not for traveling in this section.

September 7, 2007
I used this airline from Nice to Amsterdam on September 7, 2007. The airplane was held in Amsterdam September 6, 2007 until midday September 7, 2007. The flight was delayed 7 hours due to mechanical problems. Actually 8, we where held in the plane for an hour without any air conditioning; it was 34 degrees outside in the Nice sun. As soon as we landed in Amsterdam (like plane on the ground, not at the gate) the air was turned off again. By the time we got to the gate, we where gasping for air again.

September 10, 2007
Flight was delayed for 2.5 hours, reason was mechanical problems. I went to the transfer desk to see about getting on another carrier and was told that Transavia does not have any transfer agreement. I ask the lady to see about getting another flight since my company said to return that day. The lady was nice enough to check if the plane was in route, it was not but another had been place in service as a replacement. Later I found out it was the same plane that had problems on September 7, 2007

Prolog
Transavia apparently is a charter airline trying to do a new type of service. When I looked at the 7 flights for Transavia, 3 was delayed.

And, indeed, we could definitely use a Japanese phrasebook. We have a phrasebook template that might make getting started a little easier; it was developed for the Phrasebook Expedition. But of course contribute where and what you want. Thanks for coming on board. --(WT-en) Evan 01:42, 29 Jan 2004 (EST)

 * Hi Evan. This looks to be a great site. I picked it up through the link from Lessig's blog (I think. Hard to remember where some of those links come from...) I was already pretty familiar with copyleft and Creative Commons. I'd looked at Wikipedia quite a bit. Several of my students have started to use it as a reference for writing assignments. I'd never tried editing a page before, and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it is. I hadn't read the plunge forward, but just went to work on some typos. The style manual is clear enough, and then the templates got me started on new articles. All very easy.

 * This is good news! I'd been considering using wiki in some form with writing students, perhaps having them write articles for Wikipedia on Japanese cultural items. The syntax is quite simple, so I'm sure they can handle it with a little help. Wikivoyage will suit my purposes even better. I expect to enlist my students to write about the Tokyo area starting in April. I will be teaching an English seminar in which students will research and write about Tokyo in English. We'll see how much relevant material they come up with, and then post it. It may get a bit chaotic, so I may use a [moodle] to thrash out the basics first. --(WT-en) ted 08:21, 30 Jan 2004 (JST)

In the Tokyo/Shibuya article you stated: Shibuya is also surrounded by love hotels. Please discuss at Talk:Tokyo/Shibuya. -- (WT-en) Huttite 08:10, 5 Apr 2004 (EDT)

 * Thanks for the explanation you gave. I copied it almost as is to the Japan page under Love hotels - please check I got it right. -- (WT-en) Huttite 22:08, 8 Apr 2004 (EDT)

Japanese Wikivoyage
A-ha, so you're the one to bla...err, thank for bringing in all those innocent Japanese users... well, don't just stand there, ウィキトラベル日本語版を作りましょう！ Correcting my Japanese should be plenty of amusement for a lesson or three. =) (WT-en) Jpatokal 06:44, 16 Oct 2004 (EDT)

 * Sorry, er... your welcome? Yes, I've introduced a few students to Wikivoyage. I hope they haven't been too disruptive. I'm still trying to work through with them what Wikivoyage can do at the same time as we just get started. I guess it is a class-sized "plunge forward". The results have been a bit mixed so far. I described the class to them last semester, but few students really want to do any writing, and I think they are tiring of Tokyo. Some of them anyway. On the other hand, in class last week, they began to see some of the possibilities. I really didn't mean to pawn the re-writing off on the rest of Wikivoyage, but corrections, but even better- extensions, from you and Paul have been highly instructive. I've been trying to keep tabs on what they are doing after a big copyright violation from one student last semester, but it sometimes takes me a couple of days to get to my Watchlist. Also, if they make changes without logging in, I might miss them.

 * They are all in an elective English writing course, which makes it kind of hard for me to encourage them to join the Japanese Expedition. I'm sure they would get a kick out of correcting someone else for a change, but I think I need to hold off a couple weeks before mentioning it as their teacher. I'm supposed to help them write in English! Term ends in December, so I'll talk about it a bit before then. Of course, if someone who was not their English teacher left them a message on their pages, I'm sure they would appreciate it! I see you left a note for Atsuko, but you might have better luck with a few of the others listed on my user page.

 * (WT-en) Ted 17:24, 18 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Students
Ted, it's great to see so many of your students involved in Wikivoyage! Thank you for inviting them. I hope they enjoy working on Wikivoyage and that they can share their knowledge about their country (and others)! --(WT-en) Evan 09:38, 28 Oct 2004 (EDT)

 * Evan, it took me far longer than I expected to bring some students to Wikivoyage. I've also introduced them to contributing to Wikipedia. Many of them know Wikipedia as readers: it has become a popular source for plagiarism information at many unis here in Japan. Even though some students had read Wikipedia, they had no idea that they could actually create it themselves. I think they often arrived directly at pages through web searches.

 * On balance, I hope that bringing these people into Wikivoyage will be a plus. Just getting the idea of wiki into their hands is a good start and opens some new ideas about reading, writing, cooperation, and creativity. I hope a few will join the nascent Japanese Expedition later. In the short term I hope any growing pains, like copyright violation, are not too troublesome. (WT-en) Ted 23:43, 30 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Kantei
Kantei, the Prime Minister's Official Residence, is always a center of attention, particularly in times of national crisis, including when a big earthquake struck Niigata Prefecture in October 2004 and when North Korea tested a nuclear weapon last October.

During natural disasters, the prime minister assumes command at the crisis-management headquarters in the basement, which operates 24 hours a day. Real-time footage is beamed in via cameras mounted on helicopters. Other details pertaining to the headquarters are kept secret.

Though the new building is called a residence, Abe and his wife do not actually reside there, but rather in the older building. Built in the style of U.S. architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the old Kantei has now been fully refurbished.

Beer Bars in Tokyo These were reviewed in Brews News, so the reviews are not suitable for direct copying into Wikivoyage. They're here because I'd like to try and review them myself.

 * Zum Eichen Platz 5-5-11 Akasaka 2F, Minato-ku, Phone 03-5545-6623 (Go out exit 7 of Akasaka Station (Chiyoda subway line), turn right, and walk about two minutes. You'll see it on the right. ) All Tokyo needs is another German beer bar? Why, of course! This new one in Akasaka, near TBS, is a welcome addition. Specializing in Spaten, Franziskaner and Flensburger beers, it is certainly reminiscent the German Farm Grill and the three Franziskaner Cafés in Tokyo. Rumor even has it that the owner used to work for Zato Shokai that runs them. The food menu is also impressive; our "salad of the day" was a bed of greens topped by swordfish in basil sauce. Of course, there's all the sausage and potato dishes you could want. Recommended beers are the Flensburger Pilsener, the Franziskaner Weiss Dunkel (a dark wheat beer) and the potent Spaten Optimator Doppelbock.

 * Towers 2-8-10 Yaesu, Chuo-ku. Open Monday to Friday 5-11 p.m. Phone 03-3272-8488   (From Tokyo Station (Yaesu side) walk towards Yurakucho along Sotobori-dori. Turn left at the first big intersection (shortly after the Yaesu Book Center), then turn right down the side street at the Kinko's. Towers is on the right about 50 meters down. From Kyobashi Station (Ginza Line) Exit 3, walk down Kajibashi-dori toward Tokyo Station and turn left at Kinko's. Towers is down the street on the right. )  This wonderful little hole-in-the-wall, introduced in Brews News last fall by Jonathan Lloyd-Owen and Robbie Swinnerton, has been open for about a year now, and always seems to be packed by the time the sun goes down. It's a 'stand bar' meaning just that - no seats, just belly up to the bar and order from among their beers on tap. You have to love a place with beer on tap only, and good beers at that. From the conventional Edel Pils lager to the popular Hoegaarden White all the way to the deliciously drinkable Yona Yona real ale and Baird Beer's beautiful creations, Towers is the quick stop for good beer. The food menu is minimal, but most people stay satisfied with the free beer snacks like peanuts and rice crackers in big jars on the bar - help yourself. It's near the Yaesu side of Tokyo Station, with Kyobashi station on the Ginza Line the closest.

 * barBAR Marunouchi 1-9-1, Kurobei Yokocho (B1F). Open 11am-11pm daily. Phone 03-3216-0581 (On the walkway on the north side of Tokyo station that connects the Marunouchi and Yaesu sides, take the stairway down one floor when you are near the Shochu Authority, and you will be very close.)  Billing itself as a 'Homemade Deli & Micro Brewery'  bar, this little place is a welcome addition to the north end of Tokyo Station, in the Kurobei Yokocho complex of medium-sized restaurants and drinking places. Like Towers, it's a standing bar, but with lots of thick wood in the tables, there's a certain comfort factor. Despite the excessive hype of August-brand beer during the month of August, it was still a satisfactory pilsner that I'd give three stars. Less satisfactory was the two-star Red Sunset Barleywine from Nihonkai Yuhi Misaki beer of Niigata. For eats, I found the breadsticks and rolls (100 yen/piece) quite tasty.

A Wiki to PDF converter was written for Wikipedia, it should be considered for use with Wikivoyage. The script is written in Python, uses LaTeX. In prints a huge GFDL license at the end, too, which seems to not be required for Wikivoyage, because of differing licensing.

Unfortunately, it seems kind of buggy, only 1 out of 3 pages that I tried to translate work.

These are votives called ema or euma, "picture horse" (絵馬), on one side is an image, originally of a horse, now of anything. On the other side is a hand-written prayer made by the purchaser. Periodically, the priests collect these and burn them. The rising smoke carries the prayers to heaven.

Although not spectacular, its a reasonable choice if you are looking for dinner or lunch near the station.  The house special Rumon salad comes features sashimi, a good value at ¥900, and the beef-wrapped avocado is an appealing combination (¥610); draft beer ¥500.  Brush up on your Japanese — there are no English or picture menus.

See & Do

Although there is no must-see attraction in Tokyo, perhaps because so many things are competeing with each other, you can feel the energy of the city.

Asakusa is home to the oldest temple in Tokyo, and in front Nakamise is a long shopping arcade filled with little shops selling souveniers.

Meiji Shrine, on the other hand is comparatively new, being built in the late 1800s to honor the emporer Meiji, and is located in the expansive Yoyogi park.

The Imperial Palace in Chiyoda, the heart of Tokyo, is indeed the home of the emperor. The surrounding gardens are expansive and free, but the palace itself is not generally open to the public.

Tokyo has a wide assortment of museums, from world-class art museums to small galleries that are essentially the public display of an enthusists personal collection. The best collection of musseums is in Ueno Park. The impressive Mori Gallery in Roppongi, and Bunkamura in Shibuya are good bets for special exhibitions. The Kite Museum is a quirky collection of traditional Japanese kites.

Viewing platforms abound. The best bet is the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building in Shinjuku which is free and open late. Better known is Tokyo Tower in Roppongi and Tokyo World Trade Building in Hamamatsucho.

A way to take a load off your feet while moving to the next destianation is to take a boat ride on the Sumida River. Boats leave from places such as Hamamatsucho, and drop you off in Asakusa, within walking distance from the temple and shopping district.

Parks. Surprising oasis in the city of neon and concrete.

Shopping. Ginza, Omotesando, Harajuku, Akehabara (or see Shopping section)

Karaoke places are easily found near stations. Nearly all places have karaoke box where you and your friends get a private room where you can sign your heart out. You pay by the hour, and all-you-can drink or all-you-can-eat-and-drink plans are usually avaialble. Most places have a reasonable selection of English-language songs, usually found in the back of the phonebook-sized song list book.

Tokyo with Children

 * Inogashira Koen and Ghbili

 * Go to an amusement park such as Tokyo Disneyland or the more Japanese Sanrio Puroland (in Tama), home to more Hello Kittys than you can imagine.

Tokyo for Free

 * Viewing platform on the Tokyo Metro Government Building
 * Emperial Palace and the museum inside
 * Some other museum in a department store.

http://www.jnto.go.jp/eng/TTP/SI/PDF/pg-813.pdf

Late Night Tourist

 * Viewing platform on the Tokyo Metro Government Building
 * Mori Art Museum and Viewing platform in Roppongi
 * While the business district around Tokyo station becomes a ghosttown after working hours, Shinjuku, particularly Kabukicho and Shibuya seems to never sleep. There's plenty of bright lights, people watching and exploring to do.

Western Tokyo

 * In the spring, take a boatride in Kichijoji's lovely Inogashira Park, and afterwards visit the Ghibli Studios Museum (well-known for their amazing movies, like Spirited Away, and Princess Mononoke), but you will need to buy tickets for these in advance at a Lawson convenience store.

 * Jindai Botanical Gardens

Previous
Tokyo has a vast array of sights, but the first items on the agenda of most visitors are the temples of Asakusa, the gardens of the Imperial Palace (in Chiyoda) and the Meiji Shrine (in Harajuku).

If you're looking for a viewing platform, the Tokyo Tower is the best known choice. It costs money to go up, however. A much better choice - while not quite as high - is the Tokyo City Hall in Shinjuku. Its twin towers have viewing platforms that are absolutely free, and still offer a great view over Tokyo. A recent addition to the viewing platforms around Tokyo is Tokyo City View in Roppongi Hills, Roppongi.

The city is dotted with museums, large and small, which center on every possible interest from pens to antique clocks to traditional and modern arts. At ¥500 to ¥1,000 or more, entrance fees can add up quickly. Many of the largest museums are clustered around Ueno.

Do

 * Take a boat ride on the Sumida River.
 * Enjoy a soak in a local "sento" or public bath. Or one of the onsen theme parks such as LaQua at the Tokyo Dome (Taito) or Oedo Onsen Monogatari in Odaiba.
 * Check out the hip and young crowd at Harajuku's Takeshita-Dori (Takeshita Street) or the more grown up Omotesando.
 * In the spring, take a boatride in Kichijoji's lovely Inogashira Park, and afterwards visit the Ghibli Studios Museum (well-known for their amazing movies, like Spirited Away, and Princess Mononoke), but you will need to buy tickets for these in advance at a Lawson convenience store.
 * Go to an amusement park such as Tokyo Disneyland or the more Japanese Sanrio Puroland (in Tama), home to more Hello Kittys than you can imagine.

=More Japanese=

I had been thinking that the Japanese phrasebook lacked a degree of practicality, and I had some things to say about it. After reconsidering, it seems that most of what I want to say can fit into the framework of that phrasebook page.

Japanese Phrases Heard and Spoken

 * Irasshaimase Welcome.  Fellow Japanese customers will reply with silence, but if this makes you feel awkward, a reply of "ohayo gozaimasu" (good morning) or "konnichiwa" (good day) or "konbanwa" (good evening).

 * atatakai ni Would you like it warmed up?  This is referring the bento you just bought at the convenience store.  The reply onegai shimasu is a nice way to reply yes, please.

 * fukuro iranai I don't need a bag. When you are checking out of the convenience store, concern for the environment may not be your first priority, but the checker usually is obligated to put even single item purchases into a bag.

 * saabisu desu It's a service, meaning its free.  Restaurant staff will say this if you are lucky enough to have somethinng spontaneously delivered, and without charge.

 * kore This one. Works well when pointing at what you want.

 * densha ga mairimasu or densha ga kimasu. On the train platform, it is usually quite obvious from the flashing lights when a train is coming, but it might be slightly gratifiying to be able to hear this announcement "The train is coming."

 * orimasu I am getting off the train. Japanese immediately understand that they should step aside so you can get off the crowded train.  sumimasen works well, too.

McDonald's Dialog

 * Irashaimase Welcome.

 * Kore to kore onegai shimasu I'd like this and this (while pointing at the picture menu).

 * setto desu ka Do you want the set?

 * Hai, kora onegai shimasu.   Yes, with Coca-Cola please.

 * yoroshi desu ka. Will that be all?

 * Hai, kekko desu. replies "Yes, I'm fine."

 * kochira desu ka Is that for here?

 * Hai, kochira desu. Yes, for here.

 * Iie, teiku auto No, for take out.

 * shosho o-machikudasai Please wait a moment.

Nicer Restaurant

 * Ichimei/nimei sama desu ka Table for one/two people.

 * Hai, hitori/futari desu Yes, one/two people

 * kin'en desu ka? No smoking (section)?

 * Hai, onegai shimasu yes please.

 * itadakimasu This is said before the meal starts, whether in a restaurant or someone's home.  It literally means "I receive it", it is a humble acknoledgement that of the effort of those who grew and prepared the food.

 * gochiso-sama deshita. Thanks for the meal, although the more literal meaning of "it was a feast" is often given.  If the restaurant staff says "arigato gozaimasu" as you are leaving, your reply of "gochiso-sama deshita" is completely appropriate.  In restaurants like Yoshinoya where you pay at the counter on your way out, you can say gochiso-sama deshita to indicate you are ready to pay your bill.

Reading and writing
Reading and writing Japanese are advanced skills which take years of work to gain much real proficiency. Japanese themselves use three different writing systems of various complexity, two of which (hiragana' and katakana) are syllabic and relatively easy to learn with 50 characters each, but the clincher is the set of over 2000 Chinese characters known as kanji. The set of hiragana characters is illustrated below.

Japanese writing uses three different systems. Kanji are the Chinese characters, there are more than 2000 daily-use characters. Hiragana and katakana are two phonetic scripts which have 50 characters each. However, it is only a slight exaggeration to say katakana is italicized hiragana—today, the primary use of katakana is to write words borrowed from foreign languages, much as foreign words are italicized when written in English.

Although students of Japanese, including Japanese children, begin by learning hiragana and katakana, it is arguablly more practical for the traveller to learn a few survival kanji. Knowing the meaning of a few kanji such as 男 (man) and 女 (woman) is practical, when you are looking for the bathroom, for example.

Much is made about the difficulty of learning the 2000 plus kanji, and so students of Japanese, including Japanese children, start with learning to read and write the hiragana and katakana writing system. However for the traveller, it is quite practical to learn a few kanji, which may prove invaluable. Kanji are short, often pictographs, and so it is comparatively easy to remember patterns.

For the traveller interested in learning some written Japanese, consider learning katakana. There is a huge number of foreign words, mostly from English, which are written in katakana. You can not only practice reading katakana, but develop a feeling for how Japanese render English. This can be a big help if you don't know the word for orenji juusu.

There are also several competing systems for rendering Japanese in the Latin alphabet, although the Hepburn system is the most common and is used on Wikivoyage as well. Do not be surprised if you see these words romanized differently elsewhere.

 * The first best use of pattern matching is to find the station to get off of your train. Although in much of Japan the station name is written in English on the platform, usually the name is written in bigger characters and more frequently.  If you can know the characters for your destination, is helplful for getting off at the right station.

Transportation

 * Reading train and bus schedules. Most buses and trains have two schedules, the weekday and weekend/holiday schedule.  To distinguish between the two
 * * 平日　weekday
 * * 土・日・休日 saturday, sunday, holiday

 * Train and bus reservations display boards. The symbols 〇、△、× can be used to indicate the there is lots, few, no seats remaining, respectively.  These symbols are not kanji, technically.

Stores and Restaurants

 * Prices. Usually prices are written in arabic numbers, but occationally you'll see prices in Kanji, which are 〇、一、二、三、四、五、六、八、九. Zero, one, two and three are fairly obvious, leaving only six numbers to remember.  Prices written this way are often written top-to-bottom, and a Japanese comma 、 separates the 1000s and 100s place.  The character for yen 円 comes at the end of the price.  So 一、二五〇円 is ¥1,250.

 * The toilet. 化粧室、トイレ.  But more importantly, 女 is woman and 男 is man.

 * 営業中 Open for Business, posted in front of restaurants and stores. 準備中 In preparation, the restaurant will be opening soon.

 * 引・押　Pull, Push. How to open a door.

 * 入口・出口 Entrance, Exit.

 * 禁煙 No Smoking

Katakana English
Japanese are serious students of English, it is taught in schools, and it is used in advertising. However, not all English sounds can be pronounced by Japanese. One of the major uses for the katakana writing system is to render words borrowed from foreign languages (not so different how foreign words are sometimes italicized in English). English as used by Japanese has sometimes come to be called "Katakana English". Learning and using Katakana English, which mostly means pronouncing English using Japanese intonation, can be a great help. Although not recommended for teaching English or business communications, use of Katakana English may sound condescending, however when you need to communicate, you might need to use this to be understood.

Famously, Japanese have pronouncing 'R', which often comes out sounding a bit more like 'L'. In Japanese, there is a group of syllables which is usually romanized as ra, ri, ru, re and ro, but the pronunciation is perhaps somewhere in between an 'R' and an 'L'. One textbook actually romanizes these syllables as la, li, lu, le and lo, which looks strange to long-time Japanese students, but may be a more accurate way to understand how to pronounce these symbols.

English sounds which are also a problem for Japanese are 'B', 'V', 'W'. For example, a Japanese may tell you that he is worried about a uirisu, which sounds like perfectly good English to him, but leaves a native speaker befuddled. For both computers and colds, its a "virus".

That Japanese has an extensive vocabulary of words which have been imported into English is another aspect of Katakana English. Fortunately for the English speaker, these words are gradually replacing the traditional Japanese word in many cases. No longer do you need to know kudamono means fruit; just knowing how to render the word in Katakana English, fuurutu, is sufficient.

=Paraphrasing Wikivoyage Goals=

Project:Goals_and_non-goals The Wikivoyage goals are actually about who the readers are. Wikivoyage is a project to create a free, complete, up-to-date and reliable world-wide travel guide. Wikivoyage should not only be these things, but it should be interesting to read as well. The word useful is rather vague, but it implies that a poorly written guide won't attract many readers.

 * Project:wikivoyagers Wikivoyagers are people who contribute to Wikivoyage. Writers and re-writers are all Wikivoyagers.  The base of people who read Wikivoyage may be broader than those write for it.  As such, the Wikivoyage writers must accomodate a wide audience, to make Wikivoyage appealing and useful to as many people as possible, so that these people will become contributors themselves.

It seems like some important points about Wikivoyage are buried in the pages.
 * The Traveller Comes First The content of Wikivoyage should be useful to the traveller, and unbiased.   It should share the excitement that Wikipedians have about travelling.

 * Project:Neutral_point_of_view A great, and mis-titled article. Which was discussed on its talk page Wikivoyage_talk:Neutral_point_of_view.

A few more points for readers and writers Project:Copyleft

Wikivoyage is authorative. This is manifestied in policies which limit adding links to external secondary sources. It also gives writers license to be authoratative; terms such as well-known or referring to what is stated in other guide books is inappropriate.

=Manual of Style Beefs=

As a writer, I would find it far more useful if there were language/country specific pages for romanization Wikivoyage_talk:Romanization. Also, a country-specific page could include address/phone number formatting guides.

=On Travel Prose=

I enjoy writing, this is one of the major reasons that I contribute to Wikivoyage. An effective piece of travel prose gives the reader useful information. It should be factually correct, and if possible be interesting to read, particularly if there is something to exciting to share.

 * Respect your reader's intelligence, assume little about the reader's knowledge

 * Good travel writing is descripitive. But it is not necessary to make recommendations on what someone should do.  Good writing provides the reader with enough information so that he or she can decide the best course of action.

 * Report only the facts, particularly if those facts include your opinion. Project:Neutral_point_of_view  This is excellent advice,  Call a spade a spade.  However, this advice is not license to state an opinion about everything you write.  Most good travel writing is largely descriptive, and opinions have the most force when they are used sparingly.

 * Stay positive, avoid using the word "not" to describe was something isn't, describe what it is. Avoid making comparisons.  Good writing can describe something for its own merits.

 * Wikivoyage should be useful for every type of traveller. This should be reflected not only in the writing style, but also in the topics that are covered.  Writing style means that you shouldn't turn off any particular reader with condecending or offensive writing.  Writing topics means being inclusive: include a sight off the beaten track, because someone who's seen all the major sights may want to see it.  Include not only the adult admission price, but the one for children and seniors, too.

 * Write an effective article: who is your reader? The hardest part about writing an article is know who is reading, and what they don't know.  The writer has to choose from quite a large amount of knowledge to decide what to put into the article.

The safest way to avoid problem with copyright is to create all content yourself. This article contains suggestions for people writing such content.

Minor points

Good writing is an excellent defense to protect your work. "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then don't submit here." There will be little reason for someone to re-write your work if it is well written from the start. Writing good prose is not easy, and a rare talent can do it in one pass. A newspaper writer once told me that he spent about half of his time writing the first paragraph of an article. Of course, the first paragraph is important to draw in the reader, but the point here is that good prose is the product of writing and re-writing.

 * Write from personal experience. Follow the fiction writer's mantra, write what you know.

 * Write concisely.

 * Stay on topic.

 * Write a good restaurant review: there is no copyright on adjectives.

 * Become a good writer by reading. I like to read the New York Times travel section, which is available on-line.

 * Become a good writer by writing. And by re-writing your own work.  I develop my submissions on my User page, I come back to my work a few days later to re-read and evaluate what I have written, making changes.  I repeat this process until I am satisfied, and then copy the work to Wikivoyage proper.  This re-writing procedure could be done directly on the Wikivoyage page; I prefer my User page because the sequence of "prose edits" becomes public in the page's history.

 * Don't impress the reader with your command of the English language. Good writing is always a product of accurate descritions, rather than obscure words.

Respect the reader's intellegence, and the reader's ability to make thier own decisions. Consider this: Some shops take credit cards, but it's not recommended to use them since a small percentage is added to the transaction (usually 2%). Of course credit cards have a few advantages that the shopper may be willing to pay for. An improvement: Some shops take credit cards, but a small percentage, around 2%, may be added to the transaction.

Lake Victoria is one of the biggest lakes in the world Actually, it is the third largest, for surface area.
 * Be precise as possible, but only if it is relevant to the reader. Don't write marketing literature.

Heaven for the hardcore do-it-yourself electronics geek. Better: ? ug
 * Respect everyone. I am a recovering hardcore geek, so I don't take any offense at this sentance which sounds condescending:

If you have a spiritual nature and think that watching the sun rise from the top of a 10,000 foot mountain will be a memorable experience for you, do the sunrise trip. If you're the practical type and feel like you've seen enough sunrises, get a good night's sleep and take the later trip. Maui

The traveller can make her own decisions about her waking time:

If you are willing to get up at 2 am, the sunrise from the top of a 10,000-foot mountain is spectacular.

Phrases
Exported ambiance (referring to Irish pubs not in Ireland).

Hi :)

Despite my Greek nickname I am from Prague, Czech Republic. I love to travel although I am severely limited by my finances. I always appreciate tips for budget travel - to get to the most interesting places with a low budget. I am very much interested in the monuments of the pre-Christian civilizations, Greece, Egypt, civilizations of the New World... I would also like to visit natural wonders, from Amazonian or Papuan rainforest to Antarctica.

Dream job: being paid for traveling - guiding people, writing guides and such things :)

Wikivoyage in Czech
''A co založit českou mutaci Wikivoyage? Podle pravidel jsou pro založení jazykové mutace třeba tři autoři. Pokud by se našli další dva, můžeme to zkusit. Ale popravdě si nejsem jistý, zda to má smysl. Cestovatel by přeci měl umět anglicky či jiný světový jazyk, ne? Anglická verze bude vždy dál. Proč potom koukat do české? Ale možná alespoň české destinace by zasloužily českého průvodce. Uvidíme.''
