These days Yen is very strong to other major foreign currencies such as US$, Euro, GBP, AUS$, CAN$, and NZ$. Since Yen has been very weak for the past several years, and it’s been for years since I find such exchange rate last time.

US$1=99 yen
1Euro=127 yen
1GBP=161 yen
1$AUS=66 yen
1$CAN=79 yen
1$NZ=59 yen

1Euro needed as much as 170 yen before Lehman Brothers shock that happened mid Sept. in the U.S.
I can remember 1$AUS costs 106 yen at most only a few months ago.
Strong yen makes me feel happy and today I bought some Euro to prepare for my travel to Europe someday. Euro has been so strong for years and I really missed any chance to visit Europe, because when I convert any price, I felt reluctant to go there.
But now, going to any these countries do look reasonable to me.
I wish I could just fly to anywhere at any moment…
