Daaaaamn miss that water. Your mom joined! Nice! It’s interesting to see the different ways people spend money in different cultures. Like in japan they’d all spend it on a tiny apartment in the middle of the city. You could buy a village in the country for the same price and renovate it

Yeah there is nothing quite like the Gulf, it is so warm year-round. I would assume the waters in the Gulf of Thailand are similar, but because Cambodia's coastline is mostly taken by its neighboring countries, the beach just isn't a part of life or culture here.
Life in urban areas of Japan is unfathomable to me, even visiting as a tourist. On the other the hand the countryside views I have seen from Japan appear to be some of the most beautiful spaces in the world.
The city is so convenient it's easy to get stuck here. Not much work outside Tokyo, and lots of different kinds of people here. I fell in love with it because each station felt like a village in 2007 (my first time here). Slowly that is changing and each station feels like....a station. I've been exploring the countryside just an 1.2 hours from the city and it's wild. Bears and leeches and I hitchhike everywhere (though it's not NORMAL). I can't even imagine out in the REAL boonies but I plan to get out and explore more at some point. For now I'm getting acquainted with an eco village where I may be able to stay overnight once or twice a month in that foresty area closest to Tokyo.
Deep in my soul I'm a beach boy though!
That eco escape sounds nice, especially because the Japanese are so good with garden design and landscaping. I once heard somebody mention that Japan actually has a few islands in the far south that have mild weather and proper beaches, but I can't remember the name.
