Does it? It isn't obvious to me at all.

I lived in Tokyo for a year and I know how much that time meant to me.

Living with your parents again is pretty damned rough, no fucking doubt.

Just looking over your choices, that is the answer that sang to me but it ain't my choice to make. Good luck. You have some exciting options there and that's good.

Oh, definitely going to China in the Fall (or Winter if I hit Europe first). The only question is where. The city has a lot of temptation for me, but I would like, someday, to be able to see the Chinese countryside.

You lived in Tokyo? I had no idea! What work did you do? Do you speak Japanese? (I'd like to go to Japan someday, but I think China needs to come first.)

My Japanese was bad at best and now its all but non-existent.

Yeah, I taught English at Nova, the McD's of conversation schools.

But I got to spend a year in a very different place and really learn what I love about my home.

And I wrote. I wrote like a mofo. I decided that I would send out a written piece about my journey every week. So my trip had a kind of purpose and when it was all done, I had 52 stories, all lined up. That was really the best part, that discipline.

Sounds great. I wrote a lot in China, too, but nowhere near that level of discipline. I'm impressed.
