For me that was Sofia in the mid 90s...no English signage, for that matter no Roman alphabet...crazy street plan and no internet to fall back on. But great beer that cost almost nothing...I had a blast
Not a lot of besbol in Bulgaria though. More of a wrestling/water polo kind of place.
I hope to one day see a Japanese baseball game. Unfortunately, my first and so far only trip to Japan was during the offseason.
Re: Tokyo, I found it easier to get lost in Tokyo than anywhere else in the world I've ever been. The way street addresses there work is...they don't really work. I definitely recommend having a fast data plan and using Google Maps to get around. I actually rented a mifi device so the pocket of my cargo pants was my own personal hot spot, which let me use Google Maps everywhere I went.
