Our course has now taken a shape like this:
- Nagasaki 24.6 - 1.7 (Elina?) accomodation: Nagasaki Kagamiya
- Beppu 1.7 - 3.7 (?) acc: Beppu Guest House
- Fukuoka 3.7 - 7.7 acc: International Hostel Khaosan Fukuoka
- Hiroshima 7.7 - 14.7
- Osaka 14.7 - 21.7 acc: Hotel Taiyou
- Kyoto 21.7 - 28.7 acc: Kyoto Globetrotters Hostel
- Nagoya 28.7 - 4.8
- Tokyo 4.8 - 17.8 (Akane?)
So far the list looks like this, but the only certain one is Nagasaki Kagamiya as it is the only one we've reserved. Changes are possible and probable, nothing is set into stone. These cities are mainly the ones we spend our nights in (in which we reserve our hostels in) but we will run around in the neighbourhoods and surrounding cities. We'll update the list as we change our plans. (The people in parenthesis are those who we're possibly meeting in those cities.)
So. Nagasaki Kagamiya. In Hostel World the running commentary is very positive (94% positive in fact) so at least my hopes are up! We'll spend seven nights there before moving on to Beppu and try to accustom ourselves to Japan without a greater culture shock. Last time I was in Japan two years ago I had NO culture shock whatsoever but well -anything is possible.
The cost of the hostel was 236.93€, divided by two meaning it's about 118€ per person.

Thank you Ida for the translate. :D I also NEVER had a culture shock before (and I travel a lot), but as Ida said anything is possible. :D (me and my bad english -___-)
VastaaPoistaCULTURE SHOCK IS AN URBAN LEGEND says I. Or: IT IS FOR THE WEAK-MINDED! (òwó)/
VastaaPoistaNo, really. It seems to be most common when you don't want to be where you are. If I were to go to Siberia during winter I probably would have a nice tidal wave of it.
And as for the translation -no prob n__n writing in English is more enjoyable for me anyway so all's good and all that~
