Hello new world


The city doesn't look so bad...








Apparently 808 is local word for infinityesque, so hello 808 bridges in Osaka. From the map, looks like Minami district my new home will be nearish to that white bridge...I hope so.

Can't believe I am accidentally in possession of a Japanese work visa! This is definately not part of my life plan I have had since I was young, I hope I get back on the Europe-career-happily ever after track at some stage but I have experienced enough to know nothing ever turns out the way you expect and the best times hit by suprise... The whole reason I am going is because I can't spend time thinking what would have happened if I had gone, the whole trip is so crazy and unexpected I cannot imagine what adventures will occur. At this stage slightly freaked out every time I read something negative about Japan etc and still can't get a grasp in my head about what sort of things I will enjoy doing there other than hanging out with cute americans etc. As I was saying to Adriane, Japan is a country I have never thought about visiting, learnt about or ever put it on my list! I look forward to seeing the mountains, seeing the autumn leaves/blossums, laughing at the teen fashions and enjoying the serenity of temples and ruins but other than that I just cannot even fantasise about what my new life will look like, the scariest part.
