We’ve finally received the location assignment for my new job, and it’s in a city we recently visited for the first time. Is it possibly the Houston of Japan?
Amy I’ve been following you for a bit as a fellow grieving mom and I’m just finishing my first trip to Japan. It’s been wonderful and I can absolutely see the attraction. A safe, clean place with courteous, considerate people who try to avoid conflict with each other. One thing I noticed is that women in Japan dress quite modestly - they typically do not show their knees after college - even in summer. I put away my shorts after the first few days.
I loved all those things! I am excited for the cultural differences. I know there will be difficulties, but I’m eager for new and interesting challenges.
I picked up some cute, longer skirts that I have loved wearing. I feel like the modest styles in Japan are still quite fashionable and youthful! It’s nice. On my most recent trip I didn’t even pack shorts!
