I really want to teach English in Tokyo. It's been a back-of-the-mind dream for several years now. I'm not sure how well I'd do if I went alone, though. I'd need to be married, I think.

how well you'd do?

acousticrock87 07.23.2008 05:06 AM

I'd get lonely.

Toilet & Bowels 07.23.2008 05:13 AM

you'd meet other english teachers, and lots of hot japanese chicks, so marriage would perhaps be a hinderence

acousticrock87 07.23.2008 05:19 AM

Perhaps. Being in a relationship was definitely a hinderance in Korea...

I'm definitely thinking about it as a real possibility, but I don't have any way of doing it for a year or two yet anyway. I'll see how my feelings on it develop in time.

shalom falafel on bezalel st in J'lem is my favorite falafel. i never eat falafel outside of israel. it seems kind of pointless when you can get such great falafel here...
but there was one place in manhattan, near the village vanguard that runs by an israeli that had pretty decent falafel

right now it's this place. it's actually in he city, but really calm, right next to the water. great to go there in the afternoon to enjoy the sun or at night with friends.

it's ten minutes away from my house.

i take it that's antwerp? i've only been to brugge in belgium, but i really, really like it.

what's happening with belgium now, it's going to become two different countries, right?

yep it's antwerp. no one really knows what's going to happen here, but i hope we don't split since it's already hard to see us on a world map.

we have the same latent fantasies hidden in our heads, dude. I desperatly want to go to Japan, I just need to figure out a good purpose. Teaching English would not be the case, since I'm not a native speaker, though.

My favourite places as I remember them:

Kosice (Slovakia) - I was born and raised there, and will, eventually, return to die there one day
XiAn (China) - wonderful, I could not believe my eyes. Ancient culture meets high-tech
Baltimore, MD (US) - a shithole, but oh so wonderful memories
Luxembourg (Luxembourg) - a wonderful city
Monte Carlo (Monaco) - posh stuff
London (UK) - my favourite city ever. A melting pot, as you call it.

My favourite parts of the world are on the west of coast of Ireland

 

 

 

 


I'd love to take some time out when I get my shit together and just drive the entire length of the Atlantic coastline with some good friends, or even on my own and a camera.

I get a bit down about life in suburbia in this country, but we're blessed with real natural beauty, just a short drive away.

I need to take some time out and experience it properly, I love the ocean.

ithinkimissyou 07.23.2008 04:31 PM

Not to get down on the east coast...

Kraftwerk are playing in the Wicklow Mountains in a while.. here exactly:

One of my favorite places on Earth. I could sit and look at the light changing the colors from sun up to sun down, and I have!

I've only ever been places in Eastern Canada and then Trinidad and Tobago.

My favorite place was definitely Tobago.

 


I have been to this beach, it was lovely other than the fact that when I was there all there coral had been destroyed by waves and made swimming hard on the feet and what not.
