As some of you may already know, I’m moving back to Japan in about a week. It’s been about 6 years since I first came to Boston to enter Berklee college of music. It really was a great experience living in different country.
Through these years, I’ve learned a lot of stuff..not to mention about music but also more important stuff..like cultures, not only American culture but cultures from many countries, and the way of living.. things like what’s the most important value in one’s life, what’s the priority…stuff like that.
interestingly enough I also kinda had to recognize the significance of Japanese culture as a foreigner living in different country, and my own identity, both as a person and as a musician. I guess that was the greatest thing I got in this country. Although I never felt settled here, I’ll surely miss NY/ Boston.
