Spring is in the air

It's finally warming up here in Japan, spring is in the air! The icy chill has gone and the sun has come out to play. 

On my recent two days off I've been seeing sights, enjoying the warm weather by the seawall and even riding on a few thriller roller coasters. 

On Friday we went to a theme park called Fuji Q, it's at the base of the mountains right near Mt Fuji. A group of us woke up bright and early and ventured a couple hours away to arrive at our destination. 

Fuji Q is known for it's world breaking roller coasters, nearly every one has it's own world record for being the fastest, highest and most tumbling of all roller coasters. We waited in long cue's, ate greasy food but it was totally worth it! 





On my second day off we met some friends, got coffee and caught the train to Kasai Rinkai Park. It was another glorious day, having nothing planned turned into a spontaneous one. We sat by the seawall, went to the aquarium, got some Kua-aina for dinner and went to the movies!

A new start.

Welcome back.
I know I haven't blogged for a very long time and I haven't forgotten about it either, but I've been super busy the last few months and now I feel I'm back on track.

So what's new with me??  I've had a very exciting change in my life, I moved to Tokyo!
At the end of last year I got offered a dance contract with Tokyo Disney, I was very excited and couldn't wait to start this great opportunity. It was hard packing up my life in Sydney and saying goodbye to the people I love but it was totally worth it.






I have been here for a little over a month now and have already fallen in love with the generous people, the culture and the city itself. There is so much to see, taste and learn about Japan, the shopping is amazing, everywhere you turn there is another shopping complex.
My cast members are all lovely, such nice people and every time we hang out we get that little bit closer. We've already had some crazy nights out, and experienced the night life of Tokyo.

                           
                                

                                          




                             

            I feel so lucky to have this opportunity, I can't wait to see where my journey leads me!
