First Impressions

Where am I?!

It really hit me getting off the plane that this is the first time I have ever travelled/stayed an entire city trip 100% alone.  Combine that with the fact I am as far away from “home” as I have ever been and completely alone in a world that uses a foreign language as their preferred form of communication.  I am not a person overcome with more nervousness than excitement, but that is definitely how I felt the first couple seconds walking off the plane. 

I have since settled greatly, presently sitting at the airport waiting for my “Limousine” Bus to arrive which will take me directly to the front door of my hotel.  I just can’t wait to get there and drop my bags and start to explore.  What a huge amazing adventure I begin to tip toe to the base of.  Truly looking up at Mt. Fuji preparing for my climb of culture.

Excitement is once again the overwhelming feeling.  Including reminiscing on a solo laugh flying over Great Bear Lake over what I believe could have been Alaska or Canada.

Over all, just wanted everyone to know I made it safe with all my bags, next step is getting to the hotel, and then who knows….

Strong passion for technology, strong desire for an ecological solution, and a strong love of good times and great food. Jitle.us is a placeholder for my thoughts and sights, a documented bookmarking of where I've been and what I've loved. I also like to share great articles I read and (hopefully) provide some insightful commentary on what makes it important to you and me.
