To-kyold

I left my pool and the temperature was 37 degrees, I arrive in tokyo and its dropped 30 degrees!

When i left England i hadn’t packed for this.

It is a massive cultural change to have gone from India – a hot, dirty, chaotic city to a cold, clean, ordered one. As I made my way to meet Leo I stood in awe at the pedestrian crossing – not only was there very little traffic – but the street was silent, for a couple of minutes I stood smiling there listening to nothing !

Unfortunately we are at the mercy of the exchange rate which has dropped from 237 yen / pound to 135/ yen in the last year. Japan was already expensive but this makes it ridiculous.
