Sorry for late update! :-)

I went to Japan- Kyoto and Osaka with my 2 friends during 2013.05.18 to 2013.05.23. Japan is an awesome country. People there are really polite and helpful. There are different stamps and the designs are really cute!

If you want to travel alone, I highly recommend Japan to you as it's a really safe country. :D

Tips:

-If you want to buy a few stamps, write down the denominated stamps you want. It can help the communication between the staff and you. :) (E.g. write down¥70 x 5, ¥50 x 2)

-If you want the cachet at post office, you need to buy a ¥50 stamp. After you stick the stamp on the postcard, you need to tell the staff you want the post office cachet. To help the communication between the staff and you, you can write "風景印"(風景印 means the cachet).

-Buying a pack of Gotochi postcards (5 same postcards / pack), there will be a free small Gotochi postcards.

-Stay at Kyoto longer then Osaka.

在五月中的時候跟兩位朋友去了日本- 京都及大阪。日本是一個非常棒的國家，日本人亦十分有善及樂於助人。另外，那裡有很多不同的郵票，設計十分可愛呢！

如何你想當一個背包客、一個人去旅行的話，日本是一個很好的選擇！ :D

小秘密：

-如果你去郵局買郵票的話，最好寫下你要買的郵票面額。這樣有助你與郵局職員的溝通。（例如：寫下 ¥70 x 5, ¥50 x 2）

-如果想要風景印的話，要先買一個¥50郵票。在貼好郵票後，請告訴郵局職員你想要風景印。為方便大家溝通，請找一張紙條寫下”風景印”，這樣郵局職員便會立刻明白。

-買一包五張相同的當地明信片，會附送一張迷你版的當地明信片。
