My first post! I'm new to blogging, and am not entirely sure quite yet what I'm doing, but I'll give it a shot. My name is Kari, I'm originally from Indiana, and am now over here in Bangkok, Thailand with my husband and son. I met my husband, Mitsu, in May of 2008. He is from Japan, and I decided to move back to Japan with him in January, 2009. We were married May 1st of that year. We welcomed our first child, Tomoyuki, into the world in January of 2010, and here we are nearly two years later, as happy we were the first day that we met. I'm consistently battling homesickness, but I do love exploring all these new cultures, trying all this new food, and meeting so many different people. It's an amazing adventure! We have lived in Bangkok for a little more than 2 years, and have about 9 months left. In total honesty, I'm not real wild about Bangkok. It's dirty, strange odors are constantly invading my senses, the air pollution is stifling, and the streets are just littered with garbage. I do much prefer Japan for it's beauty, and cleanliness, although Thailand is far more foreigner friendly. We aren't sure where we will be going after my husband's work is up in Bangkok, but we're preparing ourselves for another major change.
I am starting this blog mostly for the benefit of family and friend's back home, so that they can feel more involved in our day to day lives over here. However, I would love to meet some new people on here and hopefully connect with people who I have some things in common with. :)
Yayy, 1st comment!
