  • Research availability of SIM chips for my mobile in both India and Japan (leads welcome!)
  • Research possibility of getting gaijin card and possibly rent an apartment

  • ... probably a million other little things...
Comments

I heard you need to get shots like 3 or 6 months (I heard both versions, didn't check) in advance for them to do anything. Then again, I heard many people go to India without.

I'm also sort of making plans for a trip to India in December. So as you find out things to go, please share. I'll do the same. :)

As for the gaijin card, it's only available to people who stay over three months, so you'd need a visa to start with.
