Well, this will be my last entry here in Japan. I'm sitting at the gate with my Starbucks tall mocha looking at the plane I'll be spending the next 10 hours in.

What am I going to miss about this place? The fact that you can smile at anyone and they'll smile back. The bowing. (There's nothing quite like having a gorgeous young man bow to you, particularly when he's a tough looking goth type.) Eating with chopsticks. The endless *different* scenery, both natural and manmade - for the natural scenery, you can't look in any direction without seeing mountains. And of course the faces. Amazing how many Japanese people there are here!

I really do feel home here. I feel like I belong. Is there time in my life to find this place as I should, and everything that belongs to me here? If it is within my power I will return

Nihon ni kaerimasu.
