I am from Reading, but spent three years living in London. In 2001 I took a year to travel the world, and realised how much I love exploring new places, and since then I try to visit somewhere new every year, or at least re-visit friends I have met along the way. In 2012 I spent 9 months living in Sydney, Australia. In mid-December I moved to Japan to start a job in Tokyo, and I expect to live here for 1-2 years. I don't yet speak Japanese, but I am learning a little each day.
I joined expat.com on 22 December 2012.
