so....

As most of you may already know, I am no longer in Japan. I never found a job, and this forced me to return home to Denmark, before I would run out of money :(

On the bright side though, I am now absolutely 110% sure, that I am going to study Japanese, as I have completely fallen in love with the country and the culture and the language and the people. I am already excited for my next visit to Japan, even though I don't know when it'll be. :D


I am lucky though. The Japanese language school I went to before I travelled to Japan has agreed to come back and let me live and receive more Jap lessons, for the next 10 weeks, so I'm settled. It's not quite like being in Tokyo though, but it sure as hell will save me some money. Plus, of course, I get Japanese lessons every day, which is good. :D


Oh well. The marks the end of my first Adventure to the Land of the Rising Sun.

I'll let this post exist, so that I can use it next time I go to Japan.

until then
have a good one

Sushi in a hurry, 3 cats and a marriage (or, the story of How I Met the Kappa in the Subway)

Got the camera working again, yay! So I can now upload pictures and a video and let you know what has been up.


I have actually not been doing much, as per usual. I'm enjoying my everyday life in Tokyo, with studying, walking, reading and having a beer once in while with Alex and Will. I'm spending quite some time with Yuko who brings me around to see some interesting things in Tokyo. Like a big-ass hotel/culturecenter, with some amazing gardens!
Either there had just been a wedding, or you could pay to have your pictures taken in some awesome wedding suits. Either way, this couple looked amazing.

Posing in the garden




Looks good, right?


Secret paparazzi photospot. They did know I was there, whilst I snapped their photo. I will sell it to newspapers all over the world, unless they give me their firstborn.




Apart from witnessing this random photoshoot, I haven't had any major events happen last few days. As I said, I've just been walking around and enjoying Tokyo. And of course, whilst doing so, I did encounter some other entertaining things:



Like this bridge to The Toilet. Very classy, yet confusing.



Or this beautiful sun-up, after a hard night of drinking!



Or this rather tired fish. Fish needs naps too!



Or these poor abandoned cats. Found them chillin' in a box in a backalley.



Interesting. Tiny squids (size of half a pointy-finger), in a roll of seaweed and rice. (Or as you guys know it: Sushi with squid). Tasted like it looked. Not reccome dable. Unless you happen to like squids and sushi of course.



That's all for now. I have uploaded a video to my youtube account from the place where I got sushi. I'll keep updating once every so often, when something happens, or I have some interesting news :) feel free to leave a comment!

cheers

camera problems. will release a new blogpost as soon as I have fixed it.

Past few days has been lazy, and I've pretty much just been seeing Yuko and Alex and Will, at different times, and we've just been hangin', so to speak, in different areas of Tokyo.
