    Yes that link is also useful. I tried Architanz and it's a really good school! Though I haven't had a teacher who can speak fluent English. I'm also interested in Aoyama Dancing Square but the website isn't working. I wonder if it is already closed? I've been going to Pole Dance Tokyo wherein they have aerial arts like hoop, silk and of cours pole. Website: http://www.poledancetokyo.com/e/ Lastly, I had a trial class just recently in The Broadway Dance Center near Okubo station. I think it's the biggest studio in Tokyo. They have 4 different studios with a gazillion classes each day and some teachers are from the States. They have different genres for different levels. Website: http://b-d-c.jp

How often do you use chopsticks?

I have just written about "Chopstick Day". The second "Chopstick day" of the year! I am curious; how often do you use chopsticks? For every meal? Once a day? With certain meals only? Occasionally? Never!?

Fears in Japan that you didn't have in your home country?

I've written a number of blogs here on City-Cost about how bears are a real worry in my area these days, and it's something that I didn't have to concern myself with in my home country. I know people talk about snakes and spiders in Australia being deadly (and yes, there are some types that are), but they're not typically going to come and attack you unprovoked. Also, it's a lot easier to outrun a snake or a spider than a bear ;) I'm curious about the rest of you, if you have fears here that maybe weren't present in your country of origin. Let me know in the comments!

Christmas - shopping, meals, etc. - how are we faring?

I saw a press release this morning from FamilyMart, which promoted their festive season eats but also covered a survey about spending. The survey mentioned most people planning to celebrate Christmas at home aim to spend less than 5,000 yen on food. How does your budget look in comparison to that? Do you go all out for Christmas here if it was something you celebrated in your home country, or is it a quieter celebration owing to it not being an official holiday here? How about Christmas shopping? Have you got strict budgets in place, and have you completed your shopping or are you still looking for bits and pieces for people?
