Solosopher & Solosophy

Jake was looking for love, so of course it eluded him. It had been a few years since he had settled into Japan, and even to this day, he still felt like a fish out of water as he navigated the cultural nuances of trying to blend in while sticking out like a foreigner in Japan. In between feeling unappreciated at work (and by his colleagues), trying to make connections with fickle-hearted dates, and failing more often than not to muster the motivation for his martial arts training, it all seemed so frustrating! Until one day, he matches with someone who seemed too good to be true, and the first time in a long time, he is happy! While enjoying the bliss of his new relationship with Elina, he can’t help but feel his insecurities periodically reel its ugly head, threatening to ruin possibly the best thing to happen to him since he arrived in Japan. What’s a guy gonna do in this crazy new world we’re living in?
