Because it's just a trip.
Many people say that Japanese people are hypocritical, impersonal and stressful, but these are things that you have to live in Japan for a while to experience.
When traveling, just enjoy their politeness and hospitality on the surface. I went to Japan two years ago with a tour group. Eight days.
When getting on the bus, the Japanese driver took the initiative to put everyone's luggage away without any help from other passengers. When getting off the bus, the driver refused to help others. The guide said that it was his duty and he could not bother others.
The driver always has a smile on his face, and everyone cheerfully greets in Japanese as they get on the bus.
Whether he's feeling innocent or sincere, that smile can actually make us feel better.
When checking into the hotel, the manager stood at the door and received a personal bow. When leaving, a staff aunt went out to see her off with a smile on her face and waved goodbye warmly. Take sightseeing train, check the ticket of the girls like clockwork to bow to everyone, both hands handed the ticket, I think I have to shorten my life.
Go to buy foundation, guide shopping little sister is very enthusiastic to give me a full makeup, always with a lovely smile on the face, even if the last only spent more than 100 yuan, she also thanked.
Convenience stores in Japan are really good. They have everything in them, like bento sushi, and the service can heat it up for you. Even if you go shopping at 8pm or 9pm, the staff are smiling and full of energy.
During my eight days in Japan, I went to countless convenience stores, cosmeceuticals, food stores and hotels, but I did not see an impatient or indifferent face. All the service staff wore smiles on their faces.
After coming back from Japan, my only feeling is to smile more, boys and girls who can smile are not too bad, even though I know their smile is for work, for money, but I still can't help feeling happy.
It turns out that both professional and genuine smiles put people in a better mood.
I have been to France, Italy, and most provinces of China before, and I have experienced some displeasure due to the service industry, for example, the salesclerk is disrespectful, the stewardess is impolite and so on.
But in Japan they are really taken for granted, and they live up to the saying "the customer is king". The same is to spend money, in other places may have to look at people face, but the waiter in Japan will let you have a kind of "this money is worth" feeling, maybe Japan is not suitable for living, but definitely suitable for traveling.
