Thanks! The pass only free for 1 way?

I roughly study and read through the Hakone and Mt Fuji maps and stuffs, I think I will lost my way there, the route ard there like not easy for me. Complicated. Haiz.

3 days like too much liao. Confirm 迷路...

the Odakyu pass are round trip tickets.

Ytd went JTB to ask abt hakone and mt fuji day and 2 days tour, not much choices available and itinerary so-so. So if jus wan to choose 1, which one is nicer with more natural scenery and gd view of mt fuji?

Becos i rem hakone like not much, main attraction is onsen, but heard tht hakone very nice place, must go? :s11:
Mt fuji got music forest, look so nice!

Or if really wan to go both places, how to go hakone from mt fuji as they r ard 2 hrs apart.

Tours too ex already! Thinking of alternative way.

Thanks!
Can do free and easy.

Fuji five lake got better view of Mount Fuji compared to hakone

Pple doubt me when they knew i plan to go holiday trip alone, becos i am quite blur and no sense of direction. And i no travel alone before.

I read tht hakone and mt fuji mostly in japanese, less eng

Mayb semi-travel more suitable for me.

No lah, they r not in scaractic way, jus canot believe it. Actually, they went japan before and know is safe.

Esp my parents they r worried, although i am really not tht young already.

Dun say them, myself also doubt, later walk and walk until where also dun know. Lost in mt fuji 5 lakes thn jia lat.

Tht's y semi travel is better, can experience travel alone, at the same time not alone thruout the trip.

Btw, i am sis, not bro! :)

ah paiseh sis.

cannot go wrong/lost if you stick to all those suggested itinerary lah. When in doubt always ask the locals around you, it will save you lots of time and money sometimes. Learn a few simple Japanese phrases, will be very useful. Oh, must learn the expected replies too. Only know how to ask but don't understand their replies also no use.:s13:

So you are not a true loner? Then can check in to those hostels, hostel usually have many fellow travelers looking for companionship in travelling. can be really fun if you hang out with the right crowd.

Semi travel is sometimes travel alone sometimes travel with pple.

Am thinking whether can find anyone here who solo travel ard the same date with me can travel together. But i am shy also.

it will help if u also have the addresses of places ready on a slip of paper so that you can show it to people (in case they do not understand english), i did that in Osaka (looking for a shop to help my friend buy stuff) and a kind hearted young man actually used his mobile to search for the place... then led me there (after that he did the 400m dash coz i think he was actually rushing to somewhere but took the time to help me)

hostels for good for the wallet, then can spend more on other stuffs

In terms of sense of direction, I am even worse.
I will get lost in Singapore~

What i do is that i prepare before going using Google Maps so it will guide me to my destination (Hotels, Attractions etc)

Even train trip, i will prepare beforehand

I don't even need to ask for direction~ :eek:

1 thing i like is japanese always go the extra mile to help.

Doing pre travel r&d is impt if u going to a place which Lang is a battle and u duno the location

And having a internet acces is a plus too

As. Can do.a online translation too

Or a OCR appl so u can snap and auto translate to the languages u needed

Jinger I duno if I got ask u before if u don't mind travel with another opps gender then it more easy too

Alone is good and freedom but feel lonely

So I kept myself occupied haja and tune in to my mp3 or jp fm radio as I got a sony mp3 Jp version so I can tune in to it

And internet acess too
