Great stuff, really appreciated. Even now it's still feeling much like a dream that I'm actually going. Always have been on the 'Would be nice to do' list.
There's going to be a weekend where I'll be staying with a host family. Hopefully most of the general etiquette will be covered in the following meetings but something like tipping is (relatively) new for me.
Been watching the conversion rate for a while and decided to pull the trigger last week just to give a little leeway in getting my money in time. 1 CDN to 93 JPN.
Another generic question now that I think of it; where are some other places to exchange money before hand? I did mine through TD and known of the various conversion booths/stores but is there one that really vary from the others?
