Kitagawa village
I've been working out among the rice paddies of rural Japan on the JET Program as a 'CIR' My home for almost 2 years now has been a small hamlet in eastern Shikoku called Kitagawa village .
Foreign population: 1
Currently...
With only a matter of weeks left at my current job, I'm getting ready for my next big trip - a cycle tour across Japan, top to bottom. The plan is to set off in August from the northern tip of Japan and just keep on pedaling south.

Whale Penis Adult Group Sex Party
If my site's going to be blocked for being “Adoruto,” I might as well give them something to block me for...In their wisdom, the fascist IT goons in Kochi seem to have deemed all the tens of thousands of Blogspot sites around the world - including mine - “Adult” (and I thought those pony photos were so innocent...) Access seems blocked on all Kochi government computers - including of course my computer here at work. Hence the long gap between posts. But I will persevere in the face of repression and continue to upload from home.
Ok... so there was no adult group sex party (whatever the board of education may think about my site), but there was a party and there was a very large penis. At a farewell party for a teacher in Muroto last month, I whitnessed a new standard in culinary depravity when a plate of sautéed whale penis was served up, much to the delight of all the Japanese present. Concerns about eating an endangered species and dining on an animal that was probably older than me aside, there are just some parts of the body that I hope to never put in my mouth. Call me gutless. I didn’t partake.
Otherwise ghastly whale intestines pale into insignificance next to the half eaten phallus on the plate behind.
