So news of our placement in Japan came out today! I've been waiting...actually, the whole process for JET has been one big waiting game, but defintely worth it. SO heeerre it is........................
CHIBA! That's a prefecture right outside of Tokyo; actually, it's considered a "suburb" if you will of Tokyo and heavily populated/developed, so I'm extremely happy! Most likely, I will not be right in the middle of the city of the Chiba area, but within an hour train ride most likely at the furthest point. An added bonus, most of my family lives around this area.....super awesome coincidence! No matter what, I'm extremely satisfied with my placement. I am centrally located in all of Japan which makes it easy for me to be able to pick up and go to any part. I'm also close to the main int'l airport, Narita so when I want to visit other countries it will be a breeeeeze. Also, there are lots of shinkansen (bullet trains) that go from Tokyo to other major cities that I can hop on to make a weekend trip to really anywhere :).
I'll have more news on the city that I'll be in at a later time, but for now, this is what I have!
