Where will I live?  To start 
Chiba (45 minutes North East of Tokyo) but will relocate, most likely, to 
Yokohama (ish). 
Why would I do this? (Asked all the time) I've been self employed now for almost 9 years.  I am taking what I know to Japan and want to build my dream business there.  It will take at least a year to get it rolling (yay Japanese paperwork) but I have a few job offers already upon arrival.
What is this blog about then?  I have an active business 
ADVeveryday Facebook page and 
ADVeveryday YouTube channel, but this is where I can write, share, educate, learn, and interact a bit more freely.
What's it like relocating to another country?  I'll get into this in other posts.  Lots of planning especially when I am bringing my race bike, gear, cat, etc.  Craziness!
I'll keep the content flowing.  Lots to talk about and I always welcome questions, comments, requests, etc.  Thanks!
