>So I'm thinking to go to a trip to Japan
Why do you want to go to Japan?
>people there speak english
Most people will not speak English very well, obvious places will (like hotels and airports), but normal people won't
>Should I learn japanese
To just visit? I'd say enough to get directions, but otherwise Japanese is only useful in Japan or if you watch anime. actually learning Japanese is fair to hard to be any use. For your own personal use a better 2nd language to learn is Spanish, but that's just general advice
>how much cost living there
More than you can probably afford, and you won't be able to get citizenship, i would not reccomend living in a country you will never be able to intergrate in
>Where should i stay
somewhere close to where you actually want to go, since you're probably a weeb i'd say a place close to Akiba, or close to a train station that leads to Akiba
>there are cheap hostels
most places aren't like Europe, there isn't a huge network for hostels
>what places should I visit, I'm specially interested on technology fairs
Akiba is cool even if you're not a weeb, temples are cool but if you don't have any appreciation for history they all just blend together, Japan's tech isn't as advanced as it was memed to be a generation ago
If you're interested in technology fairs apaprently the World's Fair is gonna be in Kazakhstan this year
