Looking to purchase a jrpass

Hi there,

Japan is one of the best countries to ''travel on the fly''. I've done so many times myself by just hopping on the train and booking a hotel once I arrive at a city I like. Most bigger stations have a tourist information and they are a great help. Just tell them your budget and they will call local hotels to find a room for you.

If that fails for some reason, you can always stay the night in an internet cafe or other 24h business, something common among Japanese.

Hope this helps!
Daniel

PS: just be sure beforehand that there's no special festival, because than rooms will be sold out months in advance.
