My six month trip to Japan has come to a close, so here's a last blog with some of my favourite moments of the trip.

Thanks for reading xoxoxo

My Top Ten Tokyo Memories


1. Using the Japanese remote control toilet for the first time and being sprayed with the bidet nozzle because I was wondering what was taking so long and stood up to see what was happening


2. Um-bah-rella Ella Ella Eh Eh Eh


3. Arriving a a kindergarten and having sixty 4 year olds rioting at the gates chanting "Leah Sensei, Leah Sensei"


4. The ten seconds before the Saikyo train pulls into Shinjuku when you can see get the lights of Kabukicho


5. Watching the sunrise from the top of Mt Fuji with Yumichan


6. Dinner with Sanaes parents, especially the first dinner where I tried to pick up some chicken with my chopsticks and accidentally sent the chicken flying across the table into Otto sans beer


7. Having a conversation in Japanese for the first time


8. Micchan asking me when I was free to go out for drinks with him and giggling like mad about it with Lucy for weeks


9. Karaoke with Niske, Bernardo, Jane, Kessy, Christine and Tsai, singing Mascau Mascau in dutch and walking like an egyptian


10. Living with Sanae. From the second we stepped into our flat and fell in love with our gorgeous little place, through the theme nights, the delicious dinners, the late night sleep overs, 3:30am geography lessons, combini trips at midnight, tarot readings, def tech duets, CSI and Golden eggs. There's just no better memory than living in this crazy city with one of my best friends.
