bailey, everywhere

I'm Bailey, a small girl from a small town. I lived a year in Kyoto and I graduated from college in Chicago in June 2010. I lived in Boston for two years but it was a wash. I'm rebuilding from the ground up. I am intent on adventures. I like beautiful things, funny things, photography, Japan, and emoticaps. (I am a vegan in progress and sometimes it happens in public. I yell most frequently about religion, racism, "women's issues," feelings, and dresses.) My friends call me Etsuko. You write it like 悦子 and it is a very good name.
小さな町からの小さな女子ベイリー(悦子とも呼ばれてます、よく合った名前っす)です。一年間京都に住み、２０１０年６月にシカゴ大学から卒業しました。二年弱ボストンに住みましたが結局無駄でしたのでこれから完全なやり直し中。日常生活にも小さい冒険があると信じて過ごしています。趣味は美しいもの、おかしいもの、撮影、日本、とemoticaps。（只今ビーガン工事中でたまにその進歩も公にされます。頻繁に出て来る課題：宗教、人種主義、「女性問題」、感情、ワンピース。）どうぞ宜しくお願い致します♪

Dongo Onsen in Matsuyama, JapanThe oldest onsen in Japan.It was the inspiration for the onsen in Spirited Away.  MIDORI AND I HAVE SOAKED IN THAT ONSENwe met a woman at the station who spoke amazing English and gave us a pint of blueberries, we slept in bunk beds in a guest house with a gate with no padlockIt is actually Dougo onsen, though. 道後温泉. It means “after the road”—like a rest from your journey. It’s basically on the pilgrimage route. Their milk machine is amazing (not a euphemism, a vending machine with glass bottles of milk).
