Welcome!

Today, after 300 frustratingly long and agonisingly boring days in the Swiss Army, I have finally been dismissed from service.
The one thing that urged me on at times of bleak despair and mind-numbing monotony, was the anticipation of our 3 month trip to Japan.

This blog's purpose, in addition to lessening our parents' grief during our absence, is to share our experiences in the Land of the Rising Sun, a country of contrasts that never fails to amaze or surprise and to which there is more than most Westerners believe.
As we won't always have an internet connection we can't promise to write posts regularly but we will try our best to keep everyone up to date.
Please feel free to leave a comment in the section below and enjoy the blog!
