[00:00.63] Todd: Clare, you're from England.

[00:02.13] Clare: That's right.

[00:03.13] Todd: How would you compare England and Japan?

[00:06.63] Clare: Well, I think.. let's take price-wise, they're actually quite similar.

[00:15.63] Well, not maybe not England as a whole but say Japan and London is very similar.

[00:22.14] I found in supermarkets, in housing and things like that.

[00:32.38] In other respects, the people are certainly different.

[00:36.13] I mean, British people are renowned to be very polite as Japanese people are too.

[00:43.13] Japanese people are very helpful as well, probably more so than British people I would say. Mm, what else?

[00:56.13] Todd: What about the weather?

[00:57.88] Clare: The weather? Well, it's been raining a lot in Japan recently so we could say that it's quite similar, although actually when I was e-mailing my parents they've been going on about how there hasn't been much rain the past couple of months and how they think there is going to be a drought.

[01:18.13] That typical British stereotype of the weather is not true at the minute and it's probably wetter in Japan.

[01:27.13] But yeah, I think that climate-wise it's quite similar in terms of temperature. It's definitely much more humid here than at home.

[01:40.63] Todd: OK. Thanks a lot.
