I did love the camel but I think what pushed me a twinge toward the blue was because my blue looks like a black one at this point haha, and it looks spiffy enough to bring to meetings, while the camel looks a bit more rustic and informal. But I did love it and tried to keep a separate work TN and a hobby TN to keep them both but my brain didn't want to keep up with two different notebooks haha. I haven't heard of the star ferry one before, but I just looked it up and it looks SO COOL. Wow, so majestic! There was one I really liked the design of but they don't particularly sell them in the USA. I think it's called the Yudo one, The hot springs one! It looks so minimal and nice so I'd say that one is my dream one.

I wasn't aware that the transportation was that expensive! But it makes sense when I think about it. That does really add up. You mentioned you were a teacher? By any chance did you first get there through the JET program? I ask because I have a good friend who first went to Japan that way and ended up staying to teach and she loves it!

I agree with you about the aesthetics for work and leisure environments!

I didn't get here through the JET Programme, but through a private eikaiwa. I've had mixed experiences as a teacher here, both positive and negative. When you have a job that's really good, it's amazing. But when a gig is really bad, it sucks big time.
