ippy 66 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Possibly my last one... Definitely this season at least. If i find a decent thai ski jo ill give it a whirl. I still might be able to ninja a day at togari, but thatll depend on the weather... wouldnt want to sully my first day there with a ride in the slush. http://www.snowjapan...amabiko-no-oka/ Its probably over long, but you know me, If i get round to looking at it again in the near future ill edit out a couple of paragraphs or so. Also, yes, ive discovered instagram so ive spent all morning playing with filters. Im thoroughly enjoying it Peace out Japan skijos! Link to post Share on other sites
tokabochi 9 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I thought Thailand wouldn't let you in? Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Passports been sent off. Just got to kill time for a few weeks waiting for them to renew it. Its not like i dont have a three year visa in Japan to sit about and twiddle my thumbs probably kicked out of my apartment next week. And have a place from April (shed let me stay earlier, but dont really wnat to burden her too much), so really just gonna spend 10 days staying in nozawa and burning up my season pass. Seems like a plan. Silver linings and all that. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 So I'm not fully on message here -- ippy, you definitely leaving Japan then? Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 was ur apartment linked to your job? Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Barring a miracle, id say yes. Im kinda excited at the idea (slightly less so about dragging a snowboard case and all my possessions around bangkok in 30 plus degree heat looking like a pillock/easy mark). I reckons once i leave im only ever back here on holiday if im back. On the plus side if thailands a bit rubbish for jobs/pay, ill have my korean docs all organised and god to go for september which means i might score a job up at Gangwon do (assuming its still there) so i can tell you all about it in time for the winter olympics in 2018 or whenever it is.

pie-eater 207 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I see so why the rush to leave Japan? Thought you loved it, esp. winter. Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 was ur apartment linked to your job? unfortunately, or fortunately since leopalace pilfered 40,000 yen just for moving out without any problems, damage or issues - i cleaned it top to bottom), yes. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 And what's your favoute colour? And...can you use chopsticks. (Obviously that last one is not really a question). Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 I see so why the rush to leave Japan? Thought you loved it, esp. winter. haha. I do love the mountains though. But ive never had a job ive enjoyed in Japan. Tell a lie, i loved the school i worked for in Saitama before coming here. But the company switched me to pro rata... theres always something in japan... Loved teachng in korea, loved the people, the country, and just the whole place. Its great. Plus, no mukade or huntsman spiders, just the ever present threat of north korea doing something daft.
