Welcome to my travel weblog!
Welcome to my weblog! I've just started this weblog and will try to keep you posted on my experiences during my travels. Have fun!
Is it posibl to fall in love with country? Yes t is possible, because i love Japan and now i suffer becaue I can not be there, but instead I am in UK. I do not want to be here, I want to be in Japan. But I have no idea how to arrange this to stay long.
It is too short for me if I stay even 3 months, as long as my visa let me. I must do few things to make it happen, to be able to stay in Japan at least for 6 months or year ...or longer if I am really lucky. I must speak Japanese well, this is first thing. Second, I need to pass some official exam to be able to teach English in Japan. This is not career I deam about, but I am an art historian from education and I have master degree too. BUt do they need art historians as skilful workers? I don't think so....
That is why I study Japanee now and I try to polish my English as well. In Japan I feel the best and most happy. It is my home. Every time I travel to Japan, and I do like so twice a year, I fel so bad that I must come back to Europe. I am sitting in plane and tears fall from my eyes. It must look so silly but I can not help it.
Thare are always adventures and special places to see in Japan. I went to many places which are far from typical tourist ways and I am glad, because I can see real Japan and people who are good and kind. And I do not mind even if they look at me like at alien when I go to some small villae in the middle of Wakayama mountains. Not alien, rather tengu haha...
I miss food and sound of Tokyo metro, Ueno park and Ameyoko with shouting salesmen. I miss Tsukiji market and Asakusa...and Minami Azabu which was my Tokyo home by 2 months. I must come back to Tokyo asap. How about Autumn? I will try...
