I landed in Narita Airport and took a transit flight to Nagoya. I arrived in Nagoya Airport and was picked up by my homestay family. We had dinner and then a shower and bath, Japanese-style. I slept on a futon on tatami mats.

Sleeping on tatami mats

Story/Tip

Quote:

I think it's very comfortable. First, spread out a futon, then a very thick mattress/quilt, then a towel blanket, then the pillow, then a blanket to top it all off. All of this on the tatami mats on the floor.
