Being awesome, made to look easy.
At long last, I now know where I will be spending my year in Japan. I received an email this morning giving me all the relevant details. I shall be living in a city called Yokohama. It is about 20 miles south-west of Tokyo and it looks like this...
As you can see, it looks amazing. Hopefully this will encourage you all to come visit.
I will have two other flatmates - an American and a Brit, who have been living there since June and September 2005 respectively. It'll be a bit odd that they have already lived there for so long I suppose, but on the plus side they will be able to show me around and make my job of adjusting a lot easier no doubt.
Yokohama is the second largest city in Japan. You can read some more details about it's history here and visit the city's own website (in English) here, which is packed with information about the things to see and do in Yokohama.
