There's a lot more that I want to see, so don't get me wrong that I'm just going to Japan for the deer lol! I've just been thinking about Nara all day lol! Have you been to Japan before? |
I'm only going for 2 weeks so not too worried about not being completely functional, but I don't want my host family to be disappointed with my level after saying I've been studying so long! I'm hoping to apply for JET eventually, spend a more extended amount of time in Japan and concentrate more on studying the language.
I've been to Nara, it's great! I was told the deer were friendly, but that's an understatement - they will try and eat anything O_O The todaiji is incredible, and I managed to fit through the hole that supposedly grants enlightenment.
