Here’s a quick little tour of the area around my home. I am loving living here.

Of course there are vending machines. I love vending machines. In Australia I was always forgetting to bring a drink with me when I go out walking etc. Here, it’s something I don’t really need to worry about. Not only are beverages cheaper here, there is usually a vending machine around somewhere. I haven’t seen any hot food vending machines here yet, so far only drinks, cigarettes and alcohol machines (which I suppose is also a drink machine).

Rice fields! There are rice fields in the smallest spaces between buildings. However, rice here is expensive.

A karaoke joint. Haven’t been here yet.

Japan has a lot of buildings that look soooo old and run down.

Hey Carlie,
So glad you are posting from Japan… was worried that you’d be too busy. If I weren’t to old I’d be trying to get on the JET program. Who knows? Maybe someday I’ll get to live in Japan, if only briefly. Until then, I depend on you lucky folks already there for inspiration. Many thanks from a fan!
p.s. Really interested in how your Japanese progresses while you are there! がんばって!
awesome pictures, be sure to check out that karaoke joint!
