Early summer in Japan means it's rainy season, so don't forget your umbrella when stepping out! If caught by a sudden rain, no worries – umbrellas are readily available at train stations, convenience stores, Don Quijote, and pharmacies. In Japan, sharing an umbrella is known as 'ai-ai-gasa', symbolizing love. If the opportunity arises, spark a conversation with a local without an umbrella - who knows, you might end up in a lovely 'ai-ai-gasa' moment! So embrace the rains and make the most of Japan's unique rainy season.
