    Sudden wave of nostalgia

    Title: I Miss Japan

    I wanted to share this because it’s been on my mind. I visited Japan just before the pandemic, from December 2019 to February 2020. I traveled alone for three months during the winter. I had no plans or expectations, just the dream I’d had for 10 years to visit Japan, and I made it happen when I was about 28 years old.

    I spent most of my time wandering alone, feeling a mix of loneliness and nostalgia. But at the same time, I was doing something I’d chosen completely for myself. It felt like a defining chapter in my life. As time passed after returning home, the memories of Japan started to feel more distant, and now it’s been almost five years.

    Yesterday, I had to take my girlfriend to the hospital. It’s a very old, tall building. When I was about to leave, most of the lights in the hospital were dimmed. I was on a high floor, in a kind of hall area with big windows overlooking the city at night. I suddenly felt this overwhelming nostalgia for Japan.

    One of my favorite things to do while I was in Japan was to go to observation decks or tall buildings at night. In Uruguay, where I live, there aren’t many tall buildings, so it was something special. I loved watching the city lights from above, alone in the quiet.

    Standing in that hospital last night reminded me of those moments. I just wanted to share this and see if anyone else has felt something similar recently, or in these past few years.

    I've been served by a lot of these little guys. Haven't seen one is a suit yet, got a kick watching it stroll out of the kitchen.
