      I couldn’t have said it better. I would LOVE to experience life like this. I know I have it good. My life is safe, so much better than millions of people in this world. But there is so much out there that I have missed. Forgive me for wanting more.

    Japanese people are so kind. Example, how he tries to discretely close the cabin door and put his alarm on vibration mode so as not to disturb others. Such people restore my faith in humanity.

    Traveling by ferry in Japan looks really relaxing. The shinkansen may be faster but I would definitely consider taking a more relaxing journey by ferry. They provide so many services on the ship it's like a mini cruise line.
