How did you find this website? (for all members)

Frank....

I'm planning to travel to Japan this summer to research my travel writings. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it after I write it, but for now it's just my excuse to go back there. I really like Japan and somehow I want to spread the word to others that they should go there. I'm thinking about teaching a class at the Experiemental College, but who knows.

Do you know who Rick Steves is? He's a local hero around here. Through his teachings, people learned that they could travel to Europe on a budget and now people do. Before he came along, a lot of people didn't think it was possible. I think Japan needs a "Rick Steves". I think people can travel to/in Japan for a lot cheaper than they do now and I hope to give them the information and encouragement to do it.

I hope to tailor my findings to appeal to a demographic the likes of recent college grads who have no money but have a desire for adventure and a willingness to sacrifice their comfort and go out of their comfort zone to get it(and of course anyone else who's interested).

Surprisingly, I meet a lot of people who say "I could never go there" when I tell them I've been to Japan. And my message is YOU CAN!

I was actually looking for Malice Mizer pics. It put up a thread from here, but I had to join in order to view the pics that were on the thread. Then I decided to look at the rest of the site, fell enchanted, and the rest, it's history!

Well, I was just cruisin' around and stumbled in via Google. Boy, what a find this has been! So many fascinating people here! I'm glad to be a member!

 

[den4]

stumbled across the site, crashed through some of the links, fell down several flights of threads, heard martians fumbling at the latches, smashed through a window or two after making fun of pretty eyes' comments and names, lost the link to the site once or twice, refound site once or twice, had some bad cutethulhuian nightmares, and managed to regain some sanity with the help of Frank
I really don't remember how I found this site anymore...does it matter?

[Riven]

Several researches on google brought on jref site, but I didn't checked the forum begining. Then I found the link somewhere at forumjapon and it took me time to post first time as there was so much to read. Well, during few months I couldn't use internet home, but now, I am back !!

Honestly, I can't remember how I stumbled on here. I first came here about 5 years ago but it wasn't so popular like it is now. Then I would periodatically stop by to look and I had another login but I forgot what it was and the email I used way back then. I decided last year to re-sign up and then decided last month to finally start posting....I know...weird huh?

On a completely unrelated note, but one not worthy of its own thread, there is a company called Power Gen Italia...unfortunately they called their website www.powergenitalia.com oh how this made me laugh...

apologies for the randomness but it just came into my head so I thought I'd post it
