A year removed from Japan
babibubebo | 21 08 2009I cannot believe that I left Japan almost a year ago! This past year has gone by so quickly and so much has happened. A few of the highlights:
- I got married and went to the French Polynesian for my honeymoon
- started my own photography business
- become addicted to Twitter
- fell into koiwai milk coffee depression
- started preparing to giving photography tours of Japan
- caught up with friends and family
- tried ton katsu in just about every Japanese restaurant in my area and was disappointed every time.
- as much as I miss teaching, traveling, living in Japan, I never want to live there again
- as much as I never want to live in Japan again, I want to visit as much as I can afford (strange huh?)
Those are the main highlights that I can think of. I still have a lot of images from Japan to post on this site, but recently all my time and energy has gone to my wife, family and my photography business. Hopefully I will update again… within a year!

What is it that drives people who moved to Japan
James Andrews | 21 08 2009What is it that drives people who moved to Japan from Japan? I personally am getting married at the end of September. My bride to be is Japanese, and owns a ballet studio in Chiba, so I will be moving there. I worry a little because many gaijin seem to be very frustrate with Japan. I don’t want to ever feel that way, because I love Japan. Been there 7 times, lived there for 3 months while going to Japanese language school. I only ever felt home sick.
Don't get me wrong, I love Japan, I just don't
babibubebo | 21 08 2009Don’t get me wrong, I love Japan, I just don’t want to live there and in fact, the 3+ years I lived there were some of the best years of my life. There are just somethings about living in Japan that make it not so appealing to me to stay for a very long time again. Some are cultural issues, like the view on (not) taking vacation and some superficial, like lack of central heating and AC in most places. I could make a list of things I love about Japan and things I am not so found of Japan and both would be really long…
