Thanks again to everyone that has been sending your messages of concern. It has been a horrible tragedy that has struck Japan, that has more than just shaken the ground from under everyone's feet.
I made the difficult decision, after pleas from friends and family to depart Japan, within a few days time. To be in country, when one of the biggest disasters ever to hit Japan occurred, has given me an even greater respect for the Japanese culture. The Japanese people have remained calm and collected with a strong inner strength, through something that I could not hide my panic and anxiety from (even though I was far from much of the damage). Japan will once again rise up from tragedy, that has attempted to knock her down many a time, to become an even stronger, unified nation. My thoughts go out to all that were and are being affected by everything that's happened.
As my blog has been written from the start of my time in Japan (more than 6 months ago), I assure my readers that there are many more blogs to follow.
Thanks again for everyone's support during this difficult time.
