The old Beach Boys song “California Girls†comes to mind, although California girls are not my favorite, in that I have mongered in many states in the United States and more than a few countries.
My most excursion was to Japan. This was my first trip to Tokyo and most likely my only trip. I won't bore you with the travel details, the long flight, the language barrier, or how nice the locals are. It is a hell of a long flight, the public transportation system in Tokyo is excellent but extremely condensed. The Tokyo travel culture does not understand “private spaceâ€. The locals are extremely polite but English is not their second language. If you go prepare yourself for a few bumps. I did feel safe at all times of the day and at every location I visited.
After checking the Internet I was prepared for limited enjoyment on the Tokyo mongering scene. Most of what I read spoke of high prices and limited contact. The idea of a hostess environment does not appeal to me and tuscl.net did not provide many positive reviews of the strip club options. One site which is my “go to†for my UK travels had more listings in North Dakota than in Japan, much less Tokyo. I frequent a site which specializes in Tijuana mongering with a little more of a blogging perspective than this site. It has a section covering Asia and Tokyo but my interpretation of its advice was “if you can make to Tokyo, catch a flight to Thailand†which is closer to the TJ experience only magnitudes better. Unfortunately I did not have the time to extend my trip so Tokyo was all I had.
I finally surfed onto a site that led me to an understanding of Japan's Pink Salons and Soaplands businesses. As I understand Japan has some unusual (from my understanding) interpretations of the sex act. I don't want to take responsibility of describing them on this forum but the bottom line, as I understand it is that if there is no vaginal penetration then many acts are not considered an illegal sex act. It appears as if Bill Clinton was schooled on these interpretations. Focusing on Pink Salon and Soapland my perspectives improved.
I ended up eliminating the Soaplands due to distance and time available, this left Pink Salons. While most I read implied that there were many Pink Salons throughout Tokyo I only found reviews and directions on one site. Within Tokyo there is an area called Kabuki-cho Shinjuku which is their red light district. It seems filled with video locations, hostess houses, strip clubs, and Pink Salon's. I found a Pink Salon via the Internet called Happy Hinomaru. Apparently many adult businesses reject or refuse foreigners. Happy Hinomaru was supposed to be foreigner friendly. The web site gave detailed directions within Kabuki-cho but limited details on how to get into the Kabuki-cho area which is in Shinjuku. Tokyo is a little like New York City with multiple boroughs. On my first run I found the building but could not believe it was the actual place. It was a little like the walk ups in Soho UK.
So back to the computer, on to the site, revisit the directions and head back to the area on the next evening. I ventured into the building and found a rather large area upstairs with a reception area and a picture wall. The wall had pictures of the girls that were working. The receptionist (male) spoke English. You pick your women of choice from the pictures and find out is she is available and also select how much time you want. The time options are 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes for 4,000, 6,000, 8,000, 10,000, or 12,000 yen and with the exchange rate at 100 yen to $1 you can do the math. I paid receptionist for 30 minutes and he leads you back into a very dark area with limited task lighting. Your area is actually a small love seat type couch; in fact the entire area is multiple sections of small couches. If the place was full then the lack of privacy would be an issue. As it turned out when I stopped by there were lots of girls available and limited customers, so privacy was not an issue.
I sat for a while, and almost went back to the receptionist thinking I missed a step, when a pretty, small woman came to my couch. Now I am not really sure if she was the one in the picture as it was pretty dark but she was acceptable. We sat for a while she giggled, no English, told me her name was Mimi and we started to have a little foreplay. The fore play lead to a BJ (covered) which lead to clean up and finished with snuggling and kissing. I left and headed back out to the street, which by now the sun is down and the lights are up. Looked like I was in Vegas, well at least the visual part.
So I made the best of Japan, I would do things a little different if there was another trip, like I would go to Thailand. I have done UK, Mexico, Japan, visited but did not monger in Germany, Amsterdam, South Africa and Venezuela all and all to date I like Mexico and Detroit the best.
