To me it feels like a matured Reddit. (At least most of the time 🙃)

I lived in Japan for a year. Travelled and set up a new vase of operations every 2 months or so... and I rode a car exactly 4 times over the full year. Once was in a single day there and back again during a company trip. Once was in a cop car when I got so very lost on my way to my destination in the boonies that the bus driver I was trying to talk to waved over the police who decided to just give me a lift... And once was a taxi I took because I just decided I was too tired to huff my 60 lbs worth of possessions to board a boat in Tokyo Bay.

It was brilliant. Now I am back in Canada and it's basically just Australia but cold.
