I'm flying into Tokyo and I've got about 8 hours between flights. I'd like to do something fun and interesting as I've never been to Japan. Any ideas?

I am going to South Korea next week & am keen to find a company or organisation that offers skydiving. I have looked around and seen the Korean parachute fereration website but as expected its written in Korean.

Any help welcome?

I'm mainly interested in understanding their use of technology, transportation, etc. I think I should go to Tokyo for a week but are there any other places I should not miss (for a day or two)?

I've been getting mixed results from my friends. But seeing as they have never done it, I would like to hear some more opinions. I've been working in finance for about 2 years. And I recently am planning to teach abroad in Japan for 1 year. Now I am worried that I won't be able to get a job when I return. So I'm thinking wether or not to go forth in my career and not teach abroad or go abroad. I just don't want that "What if" scenario happen in my life. I guess it's now or never. Hmm, what should I do? I'm 25 years of age, which I think is still a good young age. Thanks in advance!

I'm traveling budget and want to stay around central Bangkok. I'm currently concidering spending more money on a hotel near the airport and the next morning busing it into the guest house districts. If its not too much of a hassle to get a taxi and find a room then I would have no problem getting a cheaper room within the center city.

We are considering going to Japan on holiday with the family. There would be 2 adults 2 children (6 and 9 years old). we would probably go fro 14 days and visit Tokyo and Kyoto. We would want to do a few children based things as well as gardens,shrines etc. We would not have a problem finding places to go and that would be a question further down the road. My question is whether it is "children friendly" in hotels and restuarants? Whether the trains/metro is practical for families with young children? I think you know where I am coming from.... Thanks

I'm planning to go to Thailand- Bangkok and Rayong (spelling?) sometime next year. When would be an ideal time to go? How's the weather there in January/February?

I'm Filipino and it annoys me when I read something clearly false posted by someone who has limited experience or knowledge about the Philippines. It annoys me even more when the asker doesn't have contact info where I can at least msg them and set them straight.

Examples:
Some girl in Texas thinks the Americans liberated the Philippines from Spain then gave it back to Spain after WWII. (Arghhhhhhhh...)
Some girl lumped Pinoys with all other Asians and generalized that Filipino men are domineering towards all women. (How's we end up with 2 female presidents then?)

I don't get annoyed when some yahoo says something completely stupid like all Pinoys are whores. Everyone can tell they're just being dumb. I'm more annoyed by people who claim to know the Philippines but end up spreading stupid misconceptions that get passed on.

So I'm looking for other examples on Y!A of someone getting the story wrong about Pinoys. I'll keep extending this question so I we can compile a list.

Salamat
