Maybe it's because of the giant spreadsheet packing list I've been working on lately. Maybe it's because I'm wearing an outfit with pieces I'm all bringing to Tokyo. Maybe it's because of the increase of dreams I'm having about Japan. Whatever it is, I'm the most excited I've been for this journey.
I'm excited to pack, to lay out the material possessions I will sustain on for four months. (And to pick out which cardigans I'm bringing.)
I'm excited to fly by myself again. It feels fancy and grown up.
I'm excited to get off the Boeing 787 at the Narita Airport, exhausted and culture-shocked and alone.
I'm excited to meet Japanese students who will help me go grocery shopping and show me amazing things in Tokyo.
I can see it. It's getting closer every minute.
