I can yet see how life is going to be in Japan, nevertheless, I have recently learned a lot about it and can, now, start to imagine it. The level of excitement I am feeling is over the top, I can not wait to be there. I am not experiencing any anxiety or fear yet, it might come soon though.
I am thriving of new adventures and knowing I will be able to do one in a few months can’t make me happier. If there is one thing I can never lose interest for is discovering a new culture, place and tradition. Our world is so large and so small at the same time. I can’t wait to be shocked, pushed back and changed by the Japanese life style. After living for two years, here, in America, I have understood that we, as human beings, are able to adapt to and understand any things that at first might have bothered or even disgusted us.
I hope I will be able to, in the short amount of time I get there, understand and adapt to this culture. I can not imagine how differently they live over there and how much I will be changed going back to America, first, and then France. If one thing is sure is that I am less and less French, but more and more opened to others.
Audrey, your dear Frenchie.
