Thanks. I think it's mostly your fault.

Well, if making a wish list, then I prefer lower cost of living, shorter winters and longer (sunny, less-humid) summers. As far as local area, being in a very "walkable" area (easy to walk to stores, restaurants, etc.), but serene and not so much concrete jungle.

However, I'm sure I'd have to be flexible.

I have no doubt a great location is out there. It's just a matter of figuring out how to find it.

I just looked at some photos around Ashiya and Mt. Rokko on Google Earth. Wow, looks beautiful! (But to me, most of Japan looks beautiful. )
