Nagoya

I had been to Nagoya for a period of 2 months from 28th Feb 2006 to Apr 30th 2006. It was the first time I had been to a foreign nation. I never imagined Japan to be such a beautiful place. All I had heard about the advance of Japan was true and I was a part of it when I was working at Denso, Kariya. I stayed here at Freebell apartments near the nagoya eki. The construction of a big hotel was going on over there plus a subway station was also being built. Being there during sakura was one of the best times I had in my life. I really want to go there again. If someone can help me find a job or let me in as a student I would be most happy to be back here.

I lived in here from Apr.2004 to Oct.2007.
This place is peaceful and livable good.

I am dancer. It is a very valuable place for me here.
In Nagoya, there are many place for practice.
We take “Nittochi-Building” everyday for practice.
This place exists on Fushimi-station.
If you can’t find here, please ask a station employee.

If you’re dancer or like watching a dance, please go to here during 24:00 from 21:00. You can watch many dancers!!

Lived in the area called Yagoto, the “Countryside” of Nagoya

I visited Nagoya for a week when I was 16, and I can’t remember anything particularly spectacular about the city; but it was my very first taste of a foreign country – besides Canada. All I can say is that it’s rather different than upstate NY.

I spent a year (1989-1990) at Nanzan Daigaku studying Japanese. Nagoya is the Detroit of Japan – home to Toyota motors.

I give it a “not worth visiting” because there isn’t much to see from a touristic perspective, but I had a crazy time living here, partying with drunken college students, camping in nearby Mie Ken, hanging out in the discos in the center of town and the underground shopping mall beneath central park, browsing the CD collection at Tower Records in Parco.

When the school year was over, I lived for a couple of months in a seedy apartment in Imaike, the red-light district, while working nights as a bartender in a jazz bar called “Jungle Jap.”

Formative years!
