* Life can change at anytime. Completely unexpectedly as well. Most of the time, you have no idea that every move you're making is inching you closer and closer to that pivotal point where the divide between back then and right now is forming right in front of your eyes
* Vibes transcend the language barrier. Even if you can't speak the language, if someone gets a good vibe from you, they'll react positively to your presence. You can make friends anywhere with anyone, they just have to like your vibe
* I'm over Melbourne well and truly for good. The place was good for a while, i had some great times there and it's where i basically grew up. But there are so many bad memories that are attached to that place that completely outweigh the good and I need to get away from there for as long as possible
* Japanese people are organised, swift, efficient and i need to live in a city where those values form the bedrock of everything from buying dinner to administration services. I can no longer stand to have sloppy service now i know how fast and efficient the Japanese are!
* No matter where you go, life starts to mold itself to your shape. Tokyo started to feel more like home than Melbourne after the first week and i was totally accustomed to the expectations from buying meals to boarding on trains despite speaking awful Japanese
* At the end of the day, everybody is a person. But you can't deny that people from different cities and countries are a kind in themselves
* We're being ripped off in Melbourne. Everything is three times as more expensive and shitty quality

* It's not always about language. A foreign city can suit you more than a city you've grown up in for the majority of your whole adult life even if you can't communicate as well as you'd like to
* You have to look presentable, neat and clean ALL THE TIME. People are judging... constantly
* There are whole worlds to be had. You just have to want to get there no matter how hard or expensive it is. It's worth it and it will change your life
* Traveling alone and being comfortable doing it is really the ultimate sign of independence and maturity. If you can do it, then you can pretty much do anything. Add on a country which doesn't speak English and you're doubly competent.
* I'm someone who needs a lot of alone time. I've always known this but being on this trip confirmed it even more so.
