Things I miss...



*FRIENDS!
*knowing where things are.  yes I know I will learn here but I feel like I always knew where things were in Japan.
*pepperlunch, twelve frogs, shabu shabu.
*Rice balls at 7-11.
*Ready to eat edamame, well salted.
*Amazing produce.
*Good Friends.
*Routine.
*My deep bathtub, especially with this belly that doesn't seem to fit under water here.
*Lots of kitchen cabinets and a BIG pantry.
*Felling secure with the surroundings, a big heavy door with a good lock.

Poor dear - things will get better. But I totally get what you mean - I know that if we ever leave here that I will have a list just like yours. Maybe you should write a list "Things that I don't miss" about Japan, just to cheer yourself up ? I know what mine would be about Brussels:
Potholes
Dog poop on sidewalks
That half the female population is a size zero.
Love, Kayali

What about 100 yen stores?
I hope that VA feels like home soon. And I don't like that you don't feel safe.
