I lost my passport, my copy of lonely planet, my rail pass and about 400usd in yen.
For less than an hour.
I left it at a station. Boarded the train, realised I didn't have it when I got to the other end (and couldn't find the pass to exit). The station staff offered to give me some cash to help me get to my destination and it was no problem I didn't have the pass because I was "obviously respectable".
Then they came back to tell me my things had been found. I asked if I could take the train back to pick it up.
No need! The driver is bringing it to me on the next train, he'll be 30minutes. Please enjoy some free coffee in this cafe and wait.
What a country.
