I was 15, I believe, when I first went to Japan. Sadly, it was just a stop at the Tokyo airport to transfer to another plane on my way to Taiwan DX So, I ended up not being able to leave the airport... -.-;;

We went because Gramma is 88 and wanted to see Kumamoto again (she was born there, and left for Hawaii when she was four years old). It was a bit of a whirlwind but she got herself into a few hot springs and we found the shrine that Ba-chan was listed at, so she was happy and so were we!

I'm going back as soon as I can save up enough to go!

And I ain't in it for my health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done,
You gotta do it yourself..."

I was 31 when I went for the first time. I finally have a good job where I can afford nice vacations.

But to despair was to wish back for something already lost.
Or to prolong what was already unbearable.

Frakking lucky people, I'll also be going when I'm 21 as a part of college. Hopefully I won't be considered "old" by then.
