- You eat more sea-dwelling flora and fauna -cooked and raw
- You buy and use an umbrella as a parasol
- Said umbrella is now your must-have accessory
- You randomly remove your shoes before entering a building
- Your favourite ice cream flavours are green tea and purple sweet potato
- You wave your hands over incense holders, clap 3 times and bow when you go into a temple
- You put on a cardigan when the temperature drops below 25C
- You bow to strangers who are not members of the royal family
- You eat noodles for breakfast
- You do V signs in photos
- You never EVER cross the road when the red man is lit – even on back streets with no one and no traffic around
