Ida har försökt hela dagen men inte lyckats...Fast hon är närmare än vad jag någonsin varit.

P.s. jag har inte gröna fötter d.s.
Now it's almost three month since I got back to Sweden, but it wasn't until a few days ago I started to miss Japan. Mostly, I think, because of Pernilla and Lam’s blog. I write in English so that those that didn’t manage to learn Swedish during our time in Japan still can read it. I do know that my English spelling is poor, so Elina, mamma and Weston can just be quiet…
This is my summary of those 303 posts I wrote while in Japan.
Best memories: Drink-bar nights at CoCo’s
Worst memories: Lonely nights of home sickness
Best day: The day we were at the park the whole day and just lay under the trees.
Worst day: I actually don’t have one specific, just a lot of the once concerning “worst memories”.
Biggest disappointment: Chiba University and their way of administrating the exchange students.
Most proud moment: First time me and Maru manage to have a whole conversation (yes we can!).
Most ashamed of: David’s birthday…
Scariest moment: Going to get morning-after-pills.
Money well spent: First trip to Hokkaido.
Money less well spent: The clothes I bought are not suited for Sweden.
Money wasted: The ryoukan-trip I could have lived without. No fun when the one you go with just complains.
Favorite place: The park at Inage kaigan (you didn’t think that right? You all just thought “Plumeria”).
Biggest surprise: Coffee in a can!
First “I don’t want to go home”-moment: When Weston came down from their room with his computer because he had something that he just HAD to show me since he knew that I would love it.
Best story to tell my children: When me and Andrea went to Shinagawa.
It’s a small world after all-moment: Sitting next to a girl from Linköping on the plane home.
Wanted more of: Karaoke-nights
Wanted less of: Rain.
Misses the most: The food
First thing I ate in Sweden: Kebab pizza
The things I missed in Japan that turned out to be not so good when I came back: Nothing, everything I missed was better than I remembered.
Things that Swedes need to learn from the Japanese: Be service-minded!
Well...this didn't turn out the way I thought it would, but...it'll do for now. I miss you guys, even if I'm bad at keeping in touch (but so are you hehe :P).
