Married

Ritsuko and I got married, this Friday on February first 2008.

We've been dating for four years and living together for almost two so we doubt it's a huge surprise for anyone. If you wonder why you weren't invited to the ceremony, stop fretting - we didn't have one. Just the two of us filing the paperwork at the ward office, followed by dinner in Kobe at our favourite Indian restaurant ("Raja", just south of Motomachi station, off the east end of Chinatown in case anyone wonders).

Saturday next week we're off to northern Hokkaido. We are both more than a little obsessed over food and Hokkaido has some the best Japanese seafood in the country (and perhaps the best Ramen in the world), so going there in the middle of the winter is not nearly as strange as it may at first appear. I'll post pictures after the trip.

  2. Grattis, Janne!

    I don't remember how I first stumbled upon your blog, but I subscribed after liking what I read, and I have been reading your articles since.

    I wish you a very happy honeymoon and everything that comes afterwards.

  4. Congratulations, guys!

    I'm looking forward to anecdotes and a long writeup about all the trivial details about the paperwork involved. :-)

    Posting here will be lighter than usual until after the Hokkaido trip; busy days.

  9. hej Janne! Grattis till bröllopet!!! Irene gav mig din bloggadress igår så jag gick in och kollade idag! Kul grejer du berättar om!! Jag är manga-och anime-fan, så jag kommer att ha din blogg på "mina favoriter" eftersom allt om Japan är spännande...
    Mvh // Anna (i Norrland du vet?)

  11. Hasse, länge sedan! Nä, ingen blev väl särskilt överraskad tror jag. Vi bor ihop sedan länge också och lever som ett par, så det innebär ju ingen stor förändring i praktiken heller egentligen.

    Var jobbar du nu?
