My Travel Back to Germany or "The Tale of an adventure"

Well it's time. After all it's finally coming to an end. And I'm not even sure if it really has already started ... My adventure in Japan.

It all started as a dream of a little boy who read comics, watched animated comics and Kung Fu movies and got in touch with video games during elementary school. You're right if you say that the association of these things with Japan is not very clear. But this was just the start.

Someday, hard to say exactly when, the little boy heard about Samurai and Ninja, watched Pokémon (as 80% of the German kids during this time) and somehow heard things about Japan. It became a mysterical country for him and because he was born with great curiosity he swore to see this magical land with his own eyes someday.

The little boy grew and grew until he was tall. Up to this point, he hadn't thought much about Japan again but the dream still remained. And the boy remembered it. This was the time when he started to make real efforts to go to Japan. He started to learn Informatics to get a job, no matter where he would go, and started to watch for an opportunity to go to the country of warriors, mystical creatures and people who all strive for perfection in everything they do.

He even felt in love with a girl who shared the same dream and thoughts as him. But this is another story and unfortunately it doesn't have a Happy Ending. Nevertheless, this wasn't the end, only an obstacle which he overcame. The boy found his opportunity (let's call it AIESEC ;) and took it. This is how the boy came to his Promised Land.

Was the boy disappointed because the country wasn't magical and Samurais and Ninjas were just for entertainment? Well of course not! :)
In the end, the adventure was bigger than the boy could have ever dreamed of. He experienced so many things like never before, he learned to see the world in a whole new perspective, never were the obstacles so high like living in a country without even proper speaking, writing or reading the language and he still mastered it. (which made him somehow proud ;)

Like any other adventurer the boy couldn't have mastered this journey without his new friends he met on his way. They welcomed him with such great hearts, that the boy felt home from the very first beginning. And more, they helped him over every obstacle in his path and, maybe without noticing, they gave him the spirit and the energy to carry on and more. So my friends who helped me through this time, went with me outside and shared your thoughts with me, just let me thank you 1000times and say: "YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!"どうもありがとうございました！＜（_ _）＞

And I don't mean only my friends in Japan. No, also all of you who supported me from far away, no matter it was per Skype, Facebook, mail or this blog. The journey wouldn't have resulted in this end without you ^^

And was this the end the boys journey? What do you think????? ;)

Back in Germany and already ready for a New Adventure :)
Again, thank all of you ^^
