Tokyo Orientation

Konnichiwa! I made it to Tokyo! I am pretty tired from all of the orientation stuff we've done, so I will come back and write more later, but I just wanted to write quickly to say that I've made it.

It's for sure different, but I know it will be a complete culture shock in a few weeks. Tokyo has a lot of English speakers and although it is somewhat difficult to find a place to eat without completely guessing on what you are going to be served, it isn't bad. Some other JETs and I were a little overwhelmed and a lot jet-lagged last night so KFC ended up being our choice of dining. The fries were better than in the states and the chicken was probably real chicken. So far the food at the hotel has been very tasty and the people are very polite even if I don't understand what they are saying!

I have some interesting stories to come so stay tuned!

Japan bound

Time left in Colorado: 2 days
Time until Japan: 3 days
Time until I am back in CO: 1 year

There's the countdown. I can't believe I will be waking up in another country to LIVE there in less than a week.

Life sure is crazy sometimes.

I'll be back when I am on the other side of the puddle. Here goes something!
