  My WW post this week is from my time in Japan. I find myself missing Japan more and more each and every day. However at the moment my life is in Germany, who knows what the future will bring!

But while living there I learned what a land of contradictions Japan could be. On the one hand you could throw a handful of change into the ATM for a direct deposit into your account, on the other you better do it before 8 pm at night (sometimes 6 depending on your bank!!!!), your toilet seat plugged in so you could have a toasty warm bum, however there was no central heating so the rest of the house was freezing. And then there are the vending machines which are everywhere, which means you are not without beer, smokes, candy or eggs (yes eggs) anytime at night!
