I'm in Japan! 日本にいるよ！

Ok, wow, where do I even start?! Well first, I'M IN JAPAN! I've been here a week and the first few days were a whirlwind of activities. I was in Tokyo for 3 days in which seminars, socialising and sightseeing were all crammed in; to summarize briefly, I was in the Shinjuku area and visited Akihabara and Shibuya (yup, the place with the famous crossing and Hatchiko statue) and another area that I can't remember. Then I made my way to Mie and the first day was packed with drives to and from school-apartment-town hall and so many in-betweens! But I never felt the fatigue until actually plonking into bed (well, futon). My experience so far has been incredible and just...different. Everything is different which means it's all new to my eyes. Super exciting stuff to come as I get settled in and it's worth mentioning that I have met the most friendly, hospitable and accommodating people than I ever have before!! (like srsly just check out my instagram with my neighbours cute note >.<)
Other random things to note:

1. It's extremely hot and humid. 
2. I have to shower day and night. 
3. My room is fully decked out in Japanese style - tatami mats, futon, sliding doors...totally washitsu!

Lastly, I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to document everything. I feel like outfit photos just won't work (also need to get a new tripod) and then vlogs are new to me so I'm not sure how interesting that may be. Please let me know if you have any suggestions!
p.s. these photos are all pretty much from my phone and unedited.
