< insert witty first post here >

I've written too many first posts on far too many blogs for this to be comfortable anymore. 

So, instead of the usual delete and recreate, I've stuck with this one. But I've deleted the three years worth of moaning and the like. But I've kept the blog. Because this place is like home. 

So yes, the reason for the slash and burn is a good one! 

I'm moving to Japan after a long and horrifying process of applications, interviews and demo lessons. Knowing that I'm going has made it all worth it though. 

So, yeah... That's about it really. I'll be updating regularly, I hope. It'll be a good place to share my thoughts, my experiences, photographs and videos with folk. 

I promise this will get slightly more interesting, first blog posts are like first dates... Sweaty palms and stuttering... 

But the ice is broken now!
