Packing, packing, packing… 📦 📦 📦

11th move in 4 years, 3 of which were international moves under pandemic conditions. We are getting good at this, but tbh I don’t want to do it anymore 😭

@chadkoh where are you headed and why all the moves? (it goes without saying, but feel free to answer only as much as you're comfortable with 🙂)

@val There were a lot of little moves in between, from temporary apartments and the like, but the big ones are:

1. Canada to Kyoto
2. Kyoto to Iki
3. Iki back to Canada
4. Then Canada back to Kyoto!

Then, came The End.

@val We took a while to do all the stuff that needs to get done: sold the apartment, filed final taxes, etc. We decided to wait out the school year which ends this week. So now we go back to Canada, to a suburb of Vancouver, to start the next chapter.

@val This time we hope it to be a long one. There is no family left for us in Japan. We would like to stay in one place for a good long while, see the kids off the uni… get a dog… stay still. My kids deserve some stability, and I’m nearing 50! Once they are out then I will be on my bike again! 😉
