I lived in Okinawa, Japan for a year, and I experienced that reverse culture shock when I came home. I wanted to go back almost immediately.

I can't BELIEVE I've found another American woman married to an Indian man! That type of pairing is indeed rare.

Thanks for stopping by, Nicole. I'd be interested to host your story on my blog if you're up for it! Japan! Amazing. That was on my list along with India. Of course, India won out!!

And about Americans married to Indians... we exist.. but true not so many of us are so public about it!!
