Introduction

Hello and welcome! Soon enough, this blog will be filled with updates about my excursions and adventures during a year spent in Tokyo, Japan. There are several reasons that I've decided to maintain this blog (or at least attempt to), which are as follows:

1. It's been a while since I've done a good bit of writing, and posting semi-regularly to this will be some well-needed practice.

2. While I can't be sure what I'll find in Japan, writing about it should be helpful in sorting through it all.

3. Many people (and probably some of you!) have expressed an interest in knowing what I'm up to, and this is the best way to convey my experiences to whomever may be interested.

And with that said, stay tuned!
