Japan

Ahhhhhh Japan. My first foreign home (and still my favorite country in the world). By 2008 I had built up so much PTO from my corporate career that I had to “use it or lose it” — so I moved to Tokyo for six months. Little did I know that this would be the catalyst for my nomadic lifestyle…

The HoliDaze began life as Shibuya Daze back in 2008 when I first moved to the Shibuya ward of Tokyo.

Anyway, my point is the Japan section is full of both new, interesting posts and old ramblings that are quite….raw.
