We have yet to regret coming to Japan. Sure you have tough times, and of course we miss our family and friends, but the life experiences we are gaining are beyond belief.

The thing that really makes it worth wild is the other people. The lives you touch and the ones that touch you back. We have made friends that we would have never met had we stayed home. It is always fun to catch kids open mouth staring at you in the grocery store. To have toothless old ladies hold your hand and lead you to your school when you're lost. Living in a foreign country isn't easy. But you definitely know you are living.
