This week Simon and Martina talk about how amazing Japanese people are when it comes to being kind and genuine. As the duo put it; Japanese people are taught not to be 'jerks' to other people from a very young age. There's no petty crime in Japan. The couple tells a story about a man who came back to their house two days after he'd delivered them curry because he had short-changed them the equivalent of $1. One Dollar! He drove all the way back to their house, two days later, with a receipt, and bowed while apologising. The amount of honour is incredible.
