Feeling rejuvenated after conquering jet lag and bidding farewell to the persistent flu! ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธ

Returning to Japan from my adventures in Amsterdam, Xiamen, Manila, and Nagoya was an exhilarating whirlwind, but the aftermath was no joke. Last March’s jet lag kept me down for three weeks, but this November, I managed to bounce back a bit quicker.

Dealing with a lingering cough and runny nose was no walk in the park. ๐Ÿคง Despite the challenges, I’m grateful for the journey and the resilience it built within me.

Here’s to conquering time zones and germs! ๐ŸŽ‰ย 

Sorry for the rant, but sometimes you just need to share the journey! Thanks for letting me get it off my chest. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Here youโ€™ll find daily reflections and practical guides shaped by lived experience. The focus is on learning through doing: building consistency, adapting to change, and finding clarity in everyday practice.

The stories and guides here come from real processes โ€” creative experiments, hands-on projects, life in rural Japan, working with nature, and learning new skills step by step. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is polished for performance. The aim is steady progress, honest reflection, and practical insight you can actually use.

If youโ€™re curious about life in Japan, learning new skills at your own pace, or finding a calmer, more intentional way forward, youโ€™re in the right place.
