It's like people wanted me to justify why I was going there, but the connotation of their voice wasn't curious as much as it was resentment.

So really this blog entry doesn't hit that close to home, as he is talking about Japanese curious as to why a foreigner would want to come to Japan, where you are dealing with friends from home wondering why you want to go to Japan.
