I’m Picking up a Signal

So here’s what happened: Two years ago (almost exactly to the month) I started this blog right after returning home from vacation in Japan. I posted just a few times and then as I got distracted with other things I totally forgot I even had this blog. Recently I rediscovered it completely by chance, a fluke really. Thankfully I was able to remember my login and password (!!!) after so long. I think it’s a cute little blog and I want to revive it now. I write other blogs but they’re of the political and currents events type, so it’s nice to have this little haven to come to away from all that. It’s very likely that eventually I Heart Japanese Things will morph into something more multi-faceted, as blogs tend to do. I definitely want to share some things from my travels in Korea as well. I plan to travel to Japan and Korea again, and Israel too, so possibly this could end up being a world culture/travel blog. That would be fun, wouldn’t it? I’ve also been to Portugal, and lived in Czech Republic for 2 months, and lived in Italy for 3 months. Unfortunately I wasn’t using a digital camera in those days and I never kept good notes on my travels. I don’t even have a single photo from my time in the Czech Republic which just makes me sad. The churches and architecture there are incredible and I never got to photograph Charles Bridge (the most haunting place I’ve ever been in my life) or the street musicians in Prague or the snowy border of Slovakia or me eating sausage and rolicki (bread) over a fire. Thank God for digital nowadays. I can’t live without it.

I shall return.
