Can't wait to go to Japan


I want to translate : I can't wait to go to Japan / I can't wait to be in
Japan. I mean I already planed to go and I'm going there in two weeks. I'm
wondering how to express this in Japanese.

Is " 日本に行くのが待ち遠しい " correct ? Is " 日本に行くのを楽しみにしています" better ?

Also, does it sound friendly and excited ?

Would it be correct to say : 日本に行くのが待てなーい？

Thanks for reading my post. :)




There is an exact set phrase to translate "cannot wait to/for": **待ちきれない**.
待ち遠しい is as much good but its grammatical equivalent is "be a long time
coming".

> 日本に行くのが待ちきれない！

would sound friendly as well as excited.

> 日本に行くのが待てなーい

is... um... yes, perfectly natural, providing you're a teenage girl.
