The story of the best country.

If someone asks you to describe the best country in the world, what would you imagine? Absolute comfort? Perfect picture everywhere? Ideal people around? Visit Japan.

I have heard from many people that Japan is a country of the 21st century. This is a modern hi-tech country with people of a special mentality. Of course, I wanted to find out.

While some countries build famous landmarks, others conquer your mind and heart with other features. The main feature of the Japanese is their mentality and approach to organizing their lives.

The most famous meme about Japan is its hi-tech toilets. Of course, my first thing was to visit such a sanctuary.

At first glance, you experience different feelings from embarrassment to excitement. A lot of buttons and you don’t know how to use them. My first advice, if you can’t find the control area, try to download the manual. Well, I did it, and then the best time to relax began. The best relaxing music, massages, water treatments and so on. After having a great time, I left this place. But then I had a thought. Wait, I didn’t do what I visited this place for (people are laughing).

This approach with hints and reminders is everywhere.

Yeah, of course, you can see a lot of convenient infrastructure. Lots of signs and instructions.

But sometimes there are so many and it tells you how you should do it that you suddenly have the thought, what will happen if I do not follow the instructions? Will you get penalties and fines or what? Luckily, during my stay, I didn’t have that (people are not laughing).

One of the highest manifestations of this approach I found near some supermarket.

It was a vending machine named “Otsuka”.

Just imagine that you put your money into this machine and it won’t give you your drink. Just say its name and that’s it. Furthermore. You want your money back. But it doesn’t give it to you. Just say its name and that’s it.

Yeah. But the problem is that this vending machine does not serve only Russian-speaking people. (people are laughing).

Of course, if the Japanese have their own lifestyle, then they have their own way of rest.

Imagine that you dress up in a cozy dog or elephant costume and then get into a kart to tour the city roads with other people in the same costumes.

Do you imagine that such entertainment is possible in your city?

And the best thing is that everyone around you is taking pictures of you at this moment, and you are taking pictures in return (people are not laughing).

Moreover, the Japanese have their own vision of modern culture and art installations. Some of them are very interesting.

For example, the art installation “Initiative”. Each of us can remember his own situation related to such a situation.

I remember the situation at school when the teacher asked “Who is on duty today?” And there was the same big initiative from the pupils.

Someone can remember the legendary movie with the scene “Мясокомбинат… на сегодня нарядов не прислал.” (people are laughing).
