Little over 10 years ago, I remember stepping into a plane leaving to Canada, but I never thought that I wouldn't return. Of course, I knew we were moving to Canada but whenever I tried to visit, something happened (2011 earthquake and tsunami, health, education etc).
I'm deeply connected to my Japanese side (I'm half Georgian), and yet have barely been able to experience the country.
I had planned to go on a vacation there this year but...as we all know, COVID happened. I also planned a possibility of an exchange there for my undergrad. So of course I can't go this year but I'm hoping to earn some money and save in order to go next year! Of course I could go this year but if I'm going to experience Japan I'm experiencing it with all the possibilities! Finding jobs have been hard over this quarantine (on top of school too), and I'd really appreciate any form of help you can give!

I haven't been to Japan in such a long time...and I feel like something is almost missing? A part of my culture which I love so much and yet never got to experience fully. I hope with this trip I'm saving for, I'll find part of my identity there :)
