Remember how I told you about Japan being a scolding culture? Well, it's not just young girls that get in trouble--cars do, too. For example, this car is NEVER allowed to park in this parking lot. The lot managers even put up a giant poster with a picture of the car and the license plate number on the pay machine with a giant warning in red that says: "This car is NEVER allowed to park in this parking lot because it didn't pay!"

In 2008, Chronicle published my book: Urawaza: Secret Everyday Tips and Tricks from Japan.
I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!
