Weekly FOMO deals you don't wanna miss.
You may be wondering why Japan captures more hearts than any other culture in the world. The answer to that is a long lesson in history that we're not capable of narrating without dedicating an entirely new website.
But we'll try our best.
Japan used to observe isolationist policy where its culture was shut off from any other influence. As the centuries went by, the country started to be more open, introducing their ways to the western people.
The centuries of isolation, however, made their culture compact and preserved. Instead of being influenced when it decided to be more open, what happened is that the culture became mystifying to outsiders.
What resulted is a culture that all other races have fallen in love with. And with that, multitudes of Japanese culture lovers were born.
And so here you are, looking for the best gifts for the Japanese lovers that are your friend, colleague, and perhaps significant other. Here you are looking for handmade Japanese gifts for men and women.
Lucky for you, we made a list of the top 10 gifts from Japan that you can give them this coming Christmas.
Speaking of Christmas, you may want to know that the season is more of a romantic event for the Japanese. Where Christmas is celebrated as a family event in most countries, Japan celebrates it like one that of Valentine's day.
Japanese couples exchange romantic gifts over romantic dinners. You may want to tell this to your Japanese culture lover boyfriend or girlfriend the moment you hand him your gift.
You want more trivia, you say?
Here's an amusing one. Think of how we frown over someone eating loud?

What's actually frowned upon in Japan is when someone eats and drinks while walking.
Speaking of drinking, when people are on a spree together, it is polite to refill each other's glasses rather than having them refill by themselves. You may want to always keep your eyes out on someone's empty glass when drinking with the Japanese.
