I have lived in Hiroshima for about a year and a half now. You could say that I have gotten used to living in Japan, but there still is something “weird” about living alone and working in Japan. “Weird” in the way that I sometimes still find it hard to believe that I am no longer in the US or Europe.

I have been in Hiroshima for over four months, a milestone I feel has zipped by me in a flash. My time in Japan has been busy as I am juggling three jobs at UNITAR, ANT-Hiroshima, and Green Legacy Hiroshima, and then spending the rest of my free time traveling and searching for new places to eat.
