Broadening Horizons

Well, the time has finally come for me to go abroad. Although, if I was to be specific, that time would actually be about 1:30pm tomorrow. But for the sake of writing, it's easier to say "now".

In any case, I decided it was probably about time for me to make some kind of travel blog to document my travels and experiences, partly for myself, but also for friends and relatives to keep a tab on what I'm actually doing over in Japan for roughly twelve months.

Packing so far is going... slowly. I'm not expecting any issues, as the lovely people at Emirates have given me a rather substantial 30kg just for check-in luggage, which is a fair bit more than other people I've spoken to. The only other parts of my preparation that seems notable is the surprising amount of effort it took to get my contract changed with Vodafone, and also how I somehow cut my finger three times getting some earbuds.

But yes, I'm going to make a better attempt at keeping this up to date than the partner blog I've got going, which has mostly fallen out of use due to not having proper time to devote to it's actual focus, but with any luck, the two will be updated in tandem.

There will hopefully be an update in Dubai, should I have access to the internet while I'm there!
