Hi My Name Is, Hi I live In,
- Avalon
- United Kingdom
- Konichiwa! I'm going to keep this short. My name is Avalon and I live in Scotland. I used to live and teach English in Japan. If you scroll back far enough, you can read about it. I'm originally from California, so I miss good weather and Mexican food daily. I speak Spanish and am crap at Japanese. I started this blog to document all of the hilarious, amazing, and frustrating experiences that come with being a foreigner in Japan and now I am documenting said goings on in wee Scotland. So here is a small slice of life abroad, compliments of a San Diegan with a slightly skew perspective on the world.
