We-are-leaving!
I'm glad I can finally blog about this, we've had this plan for so long and it's finally coming together, we are going to Japan for 1 month and then Off toomgI'msoexcited Korea, the plan?... There's no plan!, the only sure thing for now is a 2 week WorkCamp in Japan, we'll be making Tōrō nagashi. We will mainly help and join the Festival by making the lanterns with local students, I'm very excited yet a bit scared (ok, A LOT), I guess I should learn some basic Japanese phrases RIGHT NOW.
I would just like to finish with a few points, basically just answers to some of the questions I've received regarding this trip-adventure-whatever.
1st of all, NO, I'm not RICH, just so you know, we are flying with Tickets bought with our Airline Miles (Yay!!, Thank you Aeromexico!), I should include here that we won't be staying in 5 Star Hotels or flying 1st class, we will be doing Budget-travel, 1 backpack and (here's the challenge) the least ammount of Clothes/Shoes possible.
2.- PLEASE, Don't ask me "How is it that you travel so much?", because I don't travel as much as I would like to and it's also called "Working for what you want", don't tell me "I'm so jealous cuz you get to travel" when you just spent $1000000 on the newest gadget, or if you go out every weekend and spend ridiculous amounts of money buying drinks for your friends.
3.- YES, I AM SCARED, but being scared is OK, according to Sponge Bob (lol) this is the normal reaction to the unknown.

4.- "Will you be back?", hopefully I'll be back to visit my friends :)
Anyway, I just wanted you to know because I'm very excited to start this journey with my sister, please DO NOT think I just want to brag about it and be happy for us :) lol
