Kakunodate marked the northmost border of our trip and was way outside the crowded part of Japan. The countryside was occasionally untouched and the limited resources showed in the buildings even in town. Very run down and in need of sprucing up, it was a bleak view very distant from the ones in the big cities. Winter had probably just left the area and the planks protecting trees and covering windows were ...
First Few Days in Japan
... over the world. About half of the Japanese students really like socializing with international students and to practice their English with us, but the other half are a bit shy so they mostly hang out with their friends. I hope to talk with them more once we start classes.

Encounter with a samurai
... are plenty of places that sell bento boxes of all kinds - and my God, was my bento yummie! My trip took me up North to Tohoku, the Northern part of Honshu, the main island of Japan. I went past Morioka, which some of you may remember hosted a ski worldcup back in the 90s. The whole trip took about 3.5 hours and after an hour the train had really left urban Japan behind and I got wonderfully scenic views of mountain ranges and farmland. Leaves have only started ...
