    Getting TO/AROUND: It's a very big city and to get from one point to the other, you'll probably need some transport. Walking there isn't very nice, because of the big quantity of cars,buses and so...buses come and go...and u don't know exactly when. The public transport is mostly populated with the poorest people..or just those who don't have cars...so you also have to be careful...what to wear,what to take with u etc....the subway is very nice and modern, but it's small...and u can't get to all the places with it. You could rent a car, but you should know the streets and take much care...it's a caos...too many cars and also those motoboys that come from all sides and u can't always see them. Taxis are a good choice, because they aren't to expensive...but remember: don't get a car at 6o'clock in the morning and afternoon...'cause these are rush hours...oh...and at lunch time too.

     Nihongo o hanasemasu ka, Shibiru-chan? You might want to use the word "shiitake" so that your Japanese mushrooms don't get censored. I would love to visit Brazil and perform carioca karaoke at Nakombi. Mongolian Tantra sounds good to me too!
