I had so much fun in Tokyo. It's an experience that I will never forget. I have met so many people who will forever be apart of my life. The reason I started this blog was for me to document my experience not only for myself, but for others who might not even have the inkling of exploring another country. I also wanted to show African-Americans a familiar face and let them know that study abroad is an opportunity that we must take advantage of. There are sooo many programs and destinations to choose from and the money is out there too. I hope that everyone enjoyed my adventures and learned somethings about me, Tokyo and me in Tokyo. Not so much a speech, but I wanna thank Dr. Brown, Study Abroad Advisor of Clark Atlanta University, the wonderful people at the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship , who help afford me this opportunity, Aki san, my dorm manager at Ontakesan, who at all times made me feel at home even though I was thousands of miles away and lastly all the students of Ontakesan, Takadanobaba, TUJ House and Temple University Japan. I wish everyone good luck on their life goals and I will truly miss everyone, even the ones who got on my nerves..lol.
Arigatou gozaimasu,
