S:Hi DAYAN, how are you?

D:I'm really tired -oh, I have a question to ask you

S:"Seriously, what do you want to ask me?"

D:WELL, AS YOU WILL SEE, THE NEXT WEEK I will travel to Japan and my parents asked me to learn
some customs from there.

S: I understand, DO you want me to teach you?

D: exactly, please help me sherley

S: ok ,no problem , well my parents and I lived in Japan for 10 years, and I know a lot of the Japanese
customs.

D: "Please sherley, could you show me some of the customs there?"

S: "Of course, my father still keeps practicing them, so what do you want to know first?"

D: well before this I had planned to dye my hair, is it okay if I dye my hair?

S: In Japan, people do not usually dye their hair because it is considered disrespectful, it means that
you do not value yourself or that you do not love yourself.

D:well, so It is customary not to dye your hair in Japan because it is considered a disrespectful
behavior. I did not know that, but I have another question.

S: What is that question

D: well, I was told that it is irresponsible to be 5 minutes late at a meeting in Japan

s: If, exactly, dayan you should understand that if you want to go to japan, you must be responsible.

D: Okay, I understand. oh and also Walking and eating is unpleasant in Japan but

some people told me that you can eat an ice cream while you walk
S:Yes, that's right, you can only eat an ice cream, OH AND ALSO HOLDING HANDS IN
PUBLIC IS INAPPROPRIATE IN JAPAN.
D: really, why?
S: because , Many people would think that they are a couple for that reason you can not go
down the street holding hands.
D:ok, but shreley i have another question ? , it is all right to eat sushi with forks?
S: actually, its best to eat with chopstick.
D: and it is ok to leave a tip to the waiter?
S: its impolitwe to leave a tip to the waiter, because its considered an insult.
D: i didnt know that, but I also heard that talking with food in your mouth is impolite in
japan
S: That is true but they also say that sipping noodles is seen as cuts.
