"Arigato Gozaimaz" to "Salamat Po"

My Version of the "Madras to Pondicherry" story... Not as interesting as the original one but surely has raised mixed emotions in me.

Nov Last Week: My last week in Japan. I really felt sad about leaving Japan. I missed my friends, weekend travels, Ultra clean city, Tokyo Metro, Friendly Japanese people and lot other stuff... I have traveled so much in Japan, North South East and West of Tokyo, I don’t have a count of the places I have visited. One thing I was happy about leaving was the work. One that has become so routine and boring as well and I was all alone too.

Dec 1st Week: Returned to India after hectic last few days in Japan with loads of handover, last minute issues, tickets booking and of course farewell parties ;) . As I was supposed to stay in India for only one week, had to do offshore handover, FOREX settlements, Philippines VISA, blah blah blah... All official nonsense...never had time to spend some time with my friends in Bangalore. Not even had time even to finish the Bottles which I bought in Duty-free. But the next 5 days I stayed in my home town was really memorable... Played cricket daily with my friends... met my cousins... and of course home food after a long long time.

Dec 2nd week: I landed in Philippines on Dec 11th... the land of babes and beaches and that’s true... u can find good looking girls everywhere... The density of good looking girls is so much that one surely will be awestruck and jawstruck ;) (Jollu in Tamil). Now after 4 months here I don’t miss Japan anymore now… Beer, babes and beaches… That’s what gets me going nowadays ;)… Lots of things to know and lots of places to explore…

Life doesn’t/hasn’t change(d) much… Only those who I travel with have changed… (Moral of my story/ Thatuvam of the Day)…
