I'm leaving in half an hour. I was originally supposed to leave Monday but the flight got moved. Before I go, I want to thank everyone again who donated to my indiegogo life campaign. You guys helped make my dream a reality, and I owe y'all big time. Super special thanks to my sister for helping me figure out the ropes of the social media fundraiser game, my lovely life partner Kristine for supporting me, Hazyhangin Videos for the awesome promo movie, and the two mega donors, my uncle Ed from Monson, Massachusetts, and Mr. Anonymous. Not sure who you are, but you're alright in my book. I love you madly, as the Duke would say. Alright, gotta catch a flight. I'll update this thing as much as logistically possible during my trek across rural Japan. Peace and blessings y'all
