This is spot. on. and I'm so glad you took the time you needed for you. I lived in Japan and know exactly what it feels like to never quite feel at home. I feel honored that writing to us helps. For me, it was finding little pieces of home where I could and then embracing the culture of my new home where I couldn't. It's a journey for sure. At any rate! Welcome back!! I hope all is well!

Thanks Jamie. Don't get me wrong - there's a lot about this place I absolutely love. I think I'm just really feeling that "don't fit in anywhere anymore" feeling that I've heard expats get.
