I wish I'd known about this before I left Sydney.
I feel like I've been telling a story for the past 9 months, and now I'm walking into a room filled with new people, and I'm almost at the end.
It feels exhausting to start from the beginning.
So I won't.

This is the start of my last 3 months in Japan.
not forever, but as an Eikaiwa.

It's a shame, because most of my travelling was done in the warmth. before the world currencies bombed, and suddenly earning ¥ meant my pipe dreams of South American Backpacking became much more fathomable.

I'm still going to try to get out there. but I'm saving, scrimping, and sometimes just a bit cold and preferring to stay snuggled under my blanket.

I'll do my best, and come May, this thing will be peppered with SA escapades. but for now, I'll probably lurk more, write less, and absorb. taking it all in.
