One of the best things that #Japan 🇯🇵 has to offer the world is undoubtedly its beautifully crafted, sharp knives. Come to #Nostrasia in #Tokyo, and bring a few back with you. You get the bests in Japan, and they are much cheaper here. 😉 Here are two very famous ones you can visit while you're in Tokyo. 1. Aritsugu Tsukiji

#Nostrasia #japaneselanguage #tokyo 🇯🇵🇯🇵 Come to Nostrasia in Tokyo!! 🇯🇵🇯🇵 There are some words in the Japanese language that express concepts that are unique or that are not emphasized in other languages or cultures. Here are 2 that work in a pair. 1. "Okaerinasai" (お帰りなさい): It is a word used to welcome someone back home, expressing a sense of warmth, hospitality, and acknowledgement of their return. 2. "Tadaima" (ただいま): It is a word used by someone returning home to announce their arrival. It is often met with the response "okaerinasai," creating a reciprocal exchange of acknowledgment and welcome. Every time I return to Japan and see the "okaerinasai" sign in the airport, a sense of deep appreciation for this country and its people well up in me. 🙏
