My introduction to Japan was an intensive Japanese course at ICU in Mitaka one summer, so walking the wooded paths of the campus to give a talk on world building last month brought back so many memories.
Peddling a mamachari to class each morning through the sweltering summer heat. Learning to unwrap convenience store rice balls. Feeling my first seismic tremor...

I think when I stop trying to escape from the horrors of the world, I start to realize what I’m missing and what I’ve lost and I think maybe it hurts.
I’m still working on tagging my photo library. Some of these photos are tied to memories, some are just kinda cool, but I’ve forgotten some of the context.
So many trains, so little time and money. *Sigh*
Adding more routes to the wishlist.
