Japan - Owen's ArkOwen's Ark

Japan

The first time back in 8 years after living and working in Japan as part of the JET Programme. I’m not sure how one composes a love letter to a country; whether it’s even possible to do so, not to mention wise. But in that light, I don’t think I’ve ever gotten over Japan, and I doubt I ever will. Three weeks for eight years.
