Here is the email I sent out to everyone I met in India. I just want to post it here in respect to the ppl I don't have contacts of and also to keep record of my "real-time feeling" after coming back from India.

Hi all
Just wanted to inform you all that I just arrived in Japan this morning.
It is obvious, but everything here is so different, especially Japan is so disciplined and everything is perfectly organized to the most detailed parts.
I'm definitely happy that my living standard will rise about a hundred times compared to when I was in India, with good food (I almost cried when I ate breakfast at home this morning!), warm baths, washing machine, convenient transportation, etc... but I will also definitely miss the life in India with all the tandoori chicken and naan, lack of warm water, power cuts, the cleaning lady, catching public buses and rickshaws, negotiating for prices, and most of all the life I had with such a diverse mix of people (you guys of course), especially my flatmates.
I must thank you all for being a part of the awesome experience I had.
As for me, I will be busy already from tonight starting to apply for companies since "job hunting season" has started in Japan and I also have to get ready to go back to my university after one and a half year of absense.
And more importantly, I have to attend tons of drinking parties with my friends, haha.
Seems like no time to rest, but I will always keep in mind the experience I had in India and the time I shared with you all.
Please keep in touch and do let me know what is going on with your life once in a while.
Of course, don't hesitate to contact me if any of you are visiting Tokyo.
I will be more than willing to show you around one of the most expensive cities in the world:)
Hope all is going well for all of you and best of luck in all your endeavors.
Namaste
Kohei
