Hatsukaichi, Hiroshima for the past six weeks or so has been incredible.  Living next to Miyajima Island is something special and I didn’t take any of it for granted.  I’ve really enjoyed my time here mixing it up with locals as well as meeting other travelers and english teachers. As I mentioned before in an earlier post, the staff at Backpackers Miyajima along with their friends treated me like family and I would love to come back some day! Big shoutout to Yuri, Saki, Meri, Kana, Ina, and Ura!!!  From events at the backpacker house, karaoke nights, hiking trips, and treating me to dinner at local restaurants these are all priceless memories that I’ll cherish from here on out. I’m going to miss all of you, farewell for now!

I’m heading up to Kyoto for a week and then its off to Seoul to explore my options there, but Japan I am coming back for you 😀
