In the beginning...

The JET Programme is the Japanese Exchange and Teaching Programme. I am an American JET participant, and I live and work in Hyogo, Japan.

This is my first post on what will become an extensive blog. This summer I will begin teaching English in Japan through the JET Programme. I will chronicle the time leading up to my departure, the time I spend in Japan, and all the adventures in between (there will undoubtably be plenty). I also plan on posting pictures from Japan. So I hope readers find my narrative entertaining and engaging.
