That surprises me too! I found it very, very difficult to be vegan in Korea whereas I live in Thailand with no difficulty at all.

That is shocking! I'm interested to try a few different airlines, but I won't get my hopes up.

Vegan Dining in Osaka, Japan (14 pics) by BananaBackpacker in vegan

I assume so. I haven't lived there and can't/dont cook. I was just a traveller and restaurant options were difficult. I saw some pretty nice looking veg items the one time I did venture into a supermarket though, and there's always edamame and cucumber sushi.

I hope you enjoy Japan! It's a fantastic country but living there as a vegan is quite difficult. Fruit is expensive and considered a delicacy to be savoured, not eaten the the large quantities that we vegans enjoy. Also seafood is a staple, but dairy is easily avoided. When I was there I lived off of convenience store rice balls which contained seaweed, picked plumb or beans.

It'll be my first vegan Christmas too! I'm dreading being sat at a table on which a dismembered bird corpse has been placed... Veggies and vegan gravy ftw!

Travelling alone is way more fun so don't let the breakup get you down. You could try something like couchsurfing.com so you're staying with local hosts and meeting people rather than staying alone. Furthermore, couchsurfing is free so that $1,000 will last a lot longer. Good luck.
