Nearing the end of my High School career, I took stock of the imminent future. At the time, it felt like “the future had yawned out before me into an abyss”. I felt unready, unsure about what comes next, but I decided to take a year as an exchange student.
I chose a destination with dart-on-the-map-board precision: Japan. It was as far from home as I could get without coming back, literally the opposite side of the planet.
These are my observations, written during that year.
