This is a story I wrote the majority of daily, as part of NaNoWriMo 2013. The concept for the story is one that I have been considering for a while. Earlier this year, I wrote about 3000 words on the subject as part of our Wattpad HQ Writeathon, and that work can be found under "Wattpad Writeathon 2013: Skyward". However, I wanted to start fresh for NaNoWriMo, so I have created this story to capture my progress through November.

I spent two years living in Japan, in the northern-most prefecture of Hokkaido, as part of the Japanese Exchange and Teaching (JET) Programme. The program, ostensibly, hires English teaching assistants to work in public elementary, junior high, and high schools, but the project's stated goal is to drive the internationalization of Japan through introducing students to different peoples from different cultures. The goal is for this to not be THAT Japan story, all about sushi and beer and how backwards the Japanese are to an insensitive foreigner. When I elected to start writing a Japanblog, Gaijin Desu Ne, back in 2009, I was determined that it would not be THAT JET blog. I have no idea if I succeeded, but some of the writing from that blog will drive this book. I have no idea if I can succeed in writing Not THAT Japan Story, but I'll try to write the Japan book that I'd like to read, which is equal parts lovely words and interesting Japanese annecdotes.

Meet Park Hye Eun. A nineteen-year old girl bound to live with what she desires, and that is, to travel around the world. But on her very latest visit trip, a supposed-to-be just any typical photography of a panorama turned into a hunt. Meet Kim Myung Soo. A photographer. The photographer to be exact. Accidentally captures a scenery with a lovely woman on it, and clings on to what we so call, ‘first love at first sight’. Will he ever find the girl? How? Where? When? Would it still be possible if one of them was already engaged in a relationship? These questions remain undetermined yet. But as you read the story all throughout, you will be tagging along with the rest of Hye Eun and Myung Soo’s lovestory. And it all started because of wanderlust.
