Hey guys!
Vanessa here.
Here is one trick to make your trip in Japan more convenient, if you want your trip in Japan more convenient please make your own Suica!
What is Suica?
Suica is a type of card that allows you go in and out of train stations, bus, and you can buy things in the Konbini(Convenience Store) use that card too.
Its really 便利（べんり）Benri (Convenient)!
Here is a ticketing machine in the Tokyo Station.
In the common ticketing machine they have the green colour (left side) and black colour (right side).
Now if you want to make your suica you must use the black machine.
Here is the black machine.
Then you can press English on the right hand upper corner...
Then when it turns into English, please tap the “Purchase new SUICA” the blue colour box.
Then press My Suica.
My Suica and the Suica option is the same but when you make My Suica Card you can reissued if you lost your card and there is your name written on the card.
Insert your personal data like Full Name, Gender, Birthday, Telephone Number, and for the full name it will be printed on the card.
Press okay if you have confirmed that all of the above is true.
How much money do you want to put inside the card.
But when you make a new card the card cost you 500yen.
But you can use it throughout your life.
So when ever you go to Japan you can use this card to travel anywhere all over Japan.
So for example I choose the 1000yen so the deposit will be 500yen.
Insert your 1000yen there and
TADA! Your own card! :)
Here it is your Suica! :)
Please make this when you come to Japan, it will make your trip faster, better, and convenient!
