Hi

 

Does anyone know how to send a letter to Japan? We had an exchange student with us a few months ago and she wrote us a lovely letter so want to respond in kind. The return address she wrote is  (n=number) n-n nn-Chome n-jyo Hiragishi Toyohira-ku Sapporo shi, Hakkaido nnn-nnnn Japan

 

And - do I write our return address on the front or back of the envelope?

 

 

 

Cheers

 

Sam

Hi,

 

 

 

Yep that is correct, would probably break down like:

 

 

 

n-n nn-Chome n-jyo

 

Hiragishi Toyohira-ku

 

Sapporo-shi,

 

Hakkaido nnn-nnnn

 

Japan

 

 

 

Interestingly if you were writing in japanese characters, it goes the other way:

 

Japan

 

Hakkaido nnn-nnnn

 

Sapporo-shi,

 

Hiragishi Toyohira-ku

 

n-n nn-Chome n-jyo

 

 

 

Either back or front for the return address - doesn't matter

 

 

 

Clint
