Love Love life in Japan! it was such a wonderful experience. Me and my husband grew up there and graduated high school there too (went to school with Crystal Kay -half Korean half African American Japanese Pop Singer & the main character guy from Star Wars graduated at my high school too..)Now that my husband is in the Air force we're trying out best to get back to Japan..(would prefer Yokota over the other Japan AFBs).Living on the main land was so fun...even though we lived in the Navy base we were still able to visit all of the other bases on the main land such as Yokota AFB and Zama & Atsugi Army Base.  I miss the food the Bazaar sales, fresh air smell of the ocean, the cherry blossom trees and the ppl there are so nice and funny. And it's clean! hahaha! It's the top country with the lowest crime rate. Besides the Yakuza's and other Japanese gangs it's all peachy...

Love to meet others who were from there too.. Or for those who would like to live and experience the life in Japan just to get heads up on a lot of places and things to do there.
