Oh, so you already finished your Master's too? Dang, nice. And sounds like life's been treating you pretty well too. For the wanderlust... ha, luckily a lot of my projects have gotten me to travel (to Switzerland + Italy and Russia, most notably), I don't think I could've lasted without those tbh. Game development's just as fun as it sounds. I've met some awesome people and made some small games, although I'm still working on a bigger personal project -- if I could just find the time for that |D Damn... I miss the old Face Off crew, I do. Definitely hiding that somewhere now, heh.
I was studying in South Korea for the year, but I had a two month vacation, so I spent that traveling non-stop and went to Singapore, Taiwan and Japan (twice). I promised myself I'd only speak Japanese during the trips there and yeah, that worked out well. Didn't really have trouble understanding/being understood, even when I had to talk with the police. Or, y'know, chat with the bartender because my friend was late as **** and I had to wait for him for an hour and a half. Tokyo was awesome, yeah, but I actually prefer Osaka, sort of. It's like mini-Tokyo, but cheaper, it's close to Kyoto (which, dude, if you haven't been there, you gotta go) and the people are less shy too, got invited to a karaoke by total strangers.
You gonna stay for longer this time around, or just visiting SPPF?
