July 1st has defined a new stage for me, since it is the date stamped in my passport as entering Japan for a year!
As you read it, I’m no longer living in London, but going flat hunting in Tokyo! I arrived on Friday July 1st with 2 pieces of luggage (and my boyfriend who did the same). I was very tired, so after getting to the temporary accommodation I had a quick nap and then went to my office, to meet my new team and get a sim card for my phone (which seems is pretty uncommon over here). I had a nice oyakodon for dinner (new kanji learned!) And went early to bed.
Saturday, all day flat hunting and in the evening we visited a couple of izakayas with a colleague from London who has been here for half a year. Which means I’m not having an early start on Sunday
And this is all for now. I’m still jet lagged, but enjoying it so far! I think it will be a great year
A couple of quick notes to finish:
- obviously I need to change the name of the blog
I’m thinking of naming it «Una friki viajera» but I’d love to hear your thoughts
- many times I’ll be egocentric and say I, I, I, when I should say we, but my boyfriend is very fond of his privacy, so please forgive me
See you soon and have a good Sunday!

I thought the name of your blog was going to be something related to “unagi” when I started reading the title. Then I realized that it was actually in Spanish, which doesn’t make sense since you write in English, does it?
Let’s see… An Spanish Londoner in Tokyo ? XD
Wow, I’m so envious!!
It’s great to know you are already there, please enjoy as much as you can!
And keep looking for a new name, “una friki viajera” is too common for you
