Wow. Wow. Wow.

Just returned from Beijing this afternoon and I'm still reeling from how wonderful of a trip it was. I was expecting an exciting time to be sure, but I guess I'm just surprised at how great everything turned out. Still need to upload photos and share tons of stories, but that will have to wait for later.

Tomorrow is my last full day in Tokyo before I return for Boston and I'm a bit heartbroken over it and all-in-all angsty about the next few turns that my life will take. But it will not be the end, as I will continue to post my thoughts and stories about Japan in this space for at least a little while longer, particularly since I've decided to continue to pursue my study of Japanese this summer.
