I've been putting off writing this post. I haven't though of a good ending for the blog, for this is indeed the end. I left Japan at the beginning of October, and got back to the U.S. a couple of weeks ago.
I wasn't really sure what I would write-perhaps some grandiose musing on how great it was to travel. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to spend so much time exploring the world. But after a while what I really learned was that the thing I cherish most of all is home, and family. I don't regret that I'm not going to be a globetrotter. That's not who I am.
I'll definitely travel internationally again. And I want to do a lot more traveling within the U.S. But right now what I'm really excited about is getting an apartment and a dog. Specifically a little white hypoallergenic dog.
This chapter of the Adventures is over. And the one in which I get a kickass apartment and a dog named Pencil is just beginning...
