Just returned home sweet home

I've been visiting Japan 3 weeks, returned home last night.
This time, we had full of fun schedule, like stamp convention, trip to northern Japan (for the first time) and class tour, seeing friends and families, and setting up shop/class room for Tsukineko.

I'll share a few trip photos later :)
