I knew that it wouldn't be easy to live in Japan. Because of the language (sure) and because of our both children. Now here they are in Tokyo and thank goodness, they appreciate to live in a big city...
They started last week at their new school and found already new friends. Oufff...
I feel "peu à peu" at Home in Yokohama: I already found my favorite supermarket, drugstore, Café and restaurant: the "World Kitchen". I know it don't really sound Japanese, but if a learn something during my first two week in Tokyo it's: to "make it simple"... If you are in a foreign country don't think it's necessary to try to live from the beginn as the people who are living there. Let you better a little bit more time to discover the diferrent places and the national customs...
Same think by cooking: because it's really difficult for me to read the labels on the products, I prefer to "take it easy" as well. That's why I prepared for our first meal in Japan: Pasta... But to be honesst, I spent one hour the first time at the supermarket and I just found these few products, so i really couldn't prepare anything else ;-)))
Now that I feel a little bit more "at Home" and that I fill up my fridge, I can appreciate the wonderful city of Tokyo.
So just let us go out, enjoy the incredible sunny weather and the delicious (and always so cute) "Cappuccinos"...
