What exactly does 'genki' mean? The literal translation in Japanese means 'happy' or well. In fact, in Japan people don't ask, 'How are you?' - rather they ask, 'Are you genki?'. It is therefore VERY important to always be as genki as possible! So join me on my adventures as I indulge my wanderlust, eat lots of raw fish, and explore the giant neon beehive that is Tokyo.

Welcome to Japan
Tomorrow is the big day - my dad arrives in Tokyo in the morning! I hope to god that he will be able to take the train alone and make it to my station. I think he will be okay... the Tokyo transit system is very user-friendly with signs in English and all of the dudes who work in the station are always helping people who are lost. I'm sure he will be fine. Then again.... my dad DID lose his house keys on a daily basis during my stay in Thailand.... hmmmm.........
