An American traveler spent a month in Japan and found it full of surprises! He loved how safe Japan is—imagine forgetting your phone or wallet in public, and no one steals it! He was amazed by the countless vending machines and how peaceful the streets are; people rarely use headphones while walking. Most people in Japan seem to live a very healthy lifestyle—he didn’t see many overweight people. The streets are super clean, even without public trash bins. People are patient, always waiting for the green light, and kids at schools clean their classrooms themselves. Japan is incredibly technologically advanced, with smart toilets and a new high-speed train—500 kilometers an hour—on the way. The traveler also noticed how punctual everyone is; if a train is even a minute late, the staff apologizes! Plus, customer service is amazing—hotel staff gave him water and a towel after his workout. Overall, he found Japan to be clean, safe, and advanced, with friendly and considerate people. It was an unforgettable experience!

Kansai International Airport, serving Osaka and Kyoto, says it has never lost any luggage in 30 years. The staff follow simple steps without special training and handle over 3,000 items every day with care. Bags are ready for passengers within 15 minutes of arrival. Fragile items, like strollers and surfboards, are handed directly to travelers to avoid damage. In April, Kansai Airport won an award from SKYTRAX for being the best in the world at baggage delivery. The staff are very proud of this. Since there are not many connecting passengers, it is easier to keep their perfect record. Technology has also helped reduce lost bags around the world. The airport is preparing for the Osaka Expo 2025 and plans to handle up to 40 million passengers a year, while keeping every bag safe.
