Walking on Earth
by Garrett Sergeant
In the Spring of 2008 I will be traveling to Kawagoe, Japan to study at Tokyo International University through the Japan Studies Program. While school is the focus, it's only part of the adventure. This is the first of many trips I hope to make around the world and I will be sharing it with the world here.

The Kansai Experience
We took a week off from our regularly scheduled classes to take a trip to the Kansai region of Japan via Shinkansen. Along the way we visited Miyajima, Hiroshima, Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka. Needless to say it was far too much to fully appreciate in such a short span of time, but that just gives me…

Okonomiyaki and Other Vice
My host brother is pretty inventive when it comes to his toys. With a little malevolence, he could potentially take over the world. Fortunately for us, he is content just firing rubber bands at his brothers and some Lego people. After that is a stroll through Kawasaki's Kanamara-sama Festival...
