Wednesday, April 29, 2009. I have now made it off the Island of Shikoku on not just a bus, train, and ferry, but a bike too. Is a 70km route that includes six bridges, running over small islands in the Seto Inland Sea to connect Ehime Prefecture (in Shikoku) to Hiroshima Prefecture (in Honshu). The bridges that provide an exit off Shikoku are far bigger when traveling by bike than by bus. We arrived in Onomichi City in Hiroshima at about 5 pm Naturally, there was a festival. Which meant there was fes...

Monday, July 27, 2009. My internet will be turned off tomorrow so I suppose I should take this moment to write one last blog while in Japan. But I am really tired from crying at work and having the craziest karaoke time ever last night. I woke up this morning feeling like I had been beaten up. That is how crazy the karaoke got. And these are some of the most genuinely kind. People I have met. Thursday, July 23, 2009. What I Have versus What I Do Not Have. Which was important because it was really fun.

Tuesday, June 22, 2010. I have met all the good people there are to meet. I greeted her at the Greyhound Bus station and she brought her inspirational energy into my and Jocelyn's home. Other people spent a long time in the kitchen and we ate delicious food outside. We laughed, climbed, swam, and had moments not wanting to be anywhere else in the world other than exactly where we were. August 14, 2010 at 9:00 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Friday, April 16, 2010. I love this article. Titled "The Struggles of the Global Placeless." My favorite line refers to people who ". Find that their connections can run worldwide but only an inch deep. They may find it easier to ask friends in five countries for a favor than to ask a neighbor for sugar." Somehow I understand these friendships that are spread across the world best. Monday, April 5, 2010. The Company You Keep. Have three phobias which, could I. Get up, and I.

Tuesday, May 26, 2009. Trusty Toyota: What a Waste. The phrase 'mottainai' is a common Japanese phrase used to describe wasteful situations. I often hear it when school lunch goes unfinished. Or, perhaps, when shoes are thrown out because they were found on the back porch upon moving in. I sort my garbage into six different types. This is a fairly common number. And to throw out any large appliance one must pay a fee. Japan claims that this is because they are eco with a "mottainai" mantra. It is hard to...

Friday, March 26, 2010. I now live in Pittsburgh. Supposedly in Highland Park. But everything about the space I live in says East Liberty. Which borders Highland Park). And those few days that felt like spring were fabulous. I even found a $10 bill on the ground one afternoon when I decided to walk instead of take the bus. Every Wednesday Jocelyn and I go to modern dance at Dance Alloy. And before we go we do things like eat salads in the kitchen in our leotards. Saturday, March 20, 2010. This is what I ...

Sunday, February 28, 2010. Four Year Old Birthday Parties 8/27- 9/9. It was Friday evening and we meet a friend of a friend of a friend, a woman named Marjo. We took the train with her to her house in the suburb Lahti. It is typical to have a sauna in Finnish homes. And after a sauna the tradition is to drink a beer. So after the sauna we sat outside, in towels, drinking a beer and wondering how we were so lucky to meet these amazing people. Friday, February 26, 2010. We tried to do laundry before we lef...

Thursday, February 19, 2009. My sister is in Japan right now! I am going to pick her up at the bus station tomorrow evening. We have all kinds of fun things planned. If neither of us gets sick we will be able to do all those fun things. And it will be the first time that we hang out in Asia without both of us getting violently ill. I am super excited!
