I've been in Japan just over a week now and well... I haven't really posted much. I've meant to, but I haven't really felt I have been up to much.
On the Sunday after I arrived Lok and I wandered around the local area so that she could show me the sites..... or site, really. Kaya is not a large place by any stretch. It has a couple of bakerys, a book store, 2 supermarkets (small) and a restaurant or two. There is other stuff but well... its not what I'm used to. In fact, there has been alot of that lately. Things here are just a long way out of my comfort zone so it's taking me a bit of time to get settled. I think I'm getting there but it could be a long and winding road.
Things are not helped by our current accommodation. It's a old 2 storey house. Many bugs, one air conditioner and a kitchen that lacks any of the appliances I'm used to. Except maybe a fridge and rice cooker. We don't even have a real kettle, and the hobs are so inefficient that heating water can be a bit like waiting for paint to dry. I have been making an effort to cook though, stir frys mostly. The oven just happens to be a microwave/ oven so well..... its not very big. Its gonna take some getting used to.
Well, that's enough rambling for now. I might try write more in a day or two, I think I have more to say than I thought. Whether its interesting though is not for me to judge....
