There’s plenty here for the visitor to enjoy though – most people who come here seem to like it. After more than ten years of deflation prices have come down, but the current exchange rate puts them back up again if you’re buying yen with dollars I suppose. The main cost for the visitor is transport – a cheap business hotel in a city might be ¥3,500 or so, and a cheap meal can be got for ~¥500, say, but the “Bullet Train” from Tokyo to Nagoya is about ¥10,000.

And at this stage the sun is setting on that dream. I shouldn’t complain though as I have travelled more then most, less than some.

You can bet I will be reading everything here.

yes I’ve run across many of your posts on Crunchbang! (btw that’s a very nice Linux distribution, for anyone else who’s interested.)

This WordPress theme is called “Rounded”. I haven’t modified it much – just added my choice of widgets. If you know some html you can tweak things a bit here and there; to do any serious customization I guess you’d have to pay for the ability to use your own css.

You know me from the #!Crunchbang Forums.

I am from Valencia, Spain originally.
But, I travel a lot and have lived in many places. And, I’m kinda old now.
Currently, I live and work in Santa Fe, NM, US (an Art Mecca)
I have lived in London, Kings Cross Area.
And in Osaka, Japan.

I feel so connected to Japan, it’s people and it’s culture.
I wouldn’t mind going back and retiring there, someday.

I love the chosen layout for your WordPress blog layout … I want to build one just like it. Is it easy to customize? I already have a ‘blog’ page on WordPress, just haven’t done anything with it.
