Lol. It's a far from perfect place though..
There are flaws to be seen through the cracks, like any place in the world. But on average yeah it's an awesome place and we're having an absolute ball.
The more time I do spend here, the more of certain things I tend to get "out of the system" etc.
Still love the K class cars though. Bought the latest "K Style" magazine yesterday.
Australia actually rated way higher than Japan in the World Quality of Life by country index/ranking results etc. So much free space in Australia, so much freedom, very clean, natural beauty second to none and also so much opportunity if you want to work hard in Australia, it's a lot easier than other countries to get ahead.
Things that I don't miss about Australia: Stupidly high rates of petty crime, common theft and loud/swearing/bone head/bogan types with no manners. Oh don't leave your sunglasses in your car, they'll get stolen! It's common to hear people saying that every day in Australia because that's the way it is. But over here you will see peoples' briefcases and laptops left in coffee shops while they go into the toilet. Total trust system. Expensive cars and bikes parked in the complete open at all hours of the night with no covers/locks or any form of protection. It's not a perfect place, there is crime and it does exist, quite a lot in parts, but on average, the crime is so much than Oz.
It makes me want to come back to Oz and join the feds or be a politician or something and do whatever we can to fix up the petty crime and common trash in Oz. But again, plenty of J trash here too, so again, no place is perfect. Don't go to Kabukicho
Quite a sight
Look it up on Google. We saw like 5 young teenage J boys all passed out on the concrete, stone cold, just totally drunk/unconscious/drugs not sure, but pretty sad area, plenty of mafia around too and I've had yakitori next to common mafia (Chinpira - Google it) and they tried to hassle us and I got the idea they were complete scum and we got out of there. No place on earth is perfect
I miss many things about Oz and we plan to only live here for probably 12-18 months maximum. We are looking forward to getting back to Oz later on, but for now, this is a blast/adventure and I've gotta get it more outta my system and keep learning to speak more.
Bye 4 now
