My soul city
My soul city I can honestly say, after a about three weeks in Toyo, that I love this city. I have never felt like this for any other city I've ever been to. Those who know me well knows that I always talk about South America and how I love that continent. That is so true. However, I can't really see myself living in South America for a longer period of time. This I feel with Tokyo. Tokyo is such a beautiful city in so many ways. Apart from the tall buildings, the little green parks in the middle of the city and the noise and buzzle from the city, Tokyo is also peaceful, respectful and caring. The people that I've met so far are very different from other people from other places of the world. In what way? Well, in my opinion Tokyo inhabitants are extremely polite, very kind and respectful. I can definitely see myself living in Japan and I'm so happy that we've got more than four months before we must leave again. We have only seen Tokyo so far and Japan has so much more to offer, I'm sure of it. After Tokyo we're going to Kyoto for a month and then we're off to Seoul for a week. I just found out that living in Okinawa and the southern islands are quite cheap so we've decided to go for two weeks after Seoul. One month in Okinawa and one month in Miyako Island. But what is it with this country that I love so much? I asked myself that questions a couple of times and sometimes it's hard to answer. I just love walking around in the clean streets. I love the japanese language and the friendly faces. Even though we're in the world's biggest city, Tokyo is in a way so calm. The food is good here and the air is nice. So, even though South America always will be my soul continent I am sure that at least Tokyo is my soul city..
