Where the streets have no name
You know that song by U2? They're singing about Tokyo. If you ever were in doubt. Locating a hotel on a map with only chinese characters and feeling disoriented from the darkness of the metro doesn't relly help. Sure, being on my own in Tokyo is exiting, no doubt. The feeling of being completely lost vanishes after a nap in my hotel room in Asakusa. The nameless streets of Tokyo waits for me. Time to explore!

Had to check:
"An interesting story that someone told me once is that in Belfast, by what street someone lives on you can tell not only their religion but tell how much money they’re making [...] That said something to me, and so I started writing about a place where the streets have no name."
- Bono on WP
Wonder if he knows he wrote about Tokyo. The ultimate in equality, no doubt. :-)
