Where are you!?

Friday, February 12th, 2010 in: News, Travel

So a lot of people have asked me “where are you exactly??” I think I came up with a good answer. How about I invite you to my ‘hood?

So, you might not know where Nagoya is, let alone Iwakura. I’m in a little suburban area of Nagoya, the capitol of Aichi prefecture. More specifically, I’m living in the house on the left, with the blue roof. My room is the second floor on the left (can you see me waving?). Across the street, the white building with the green roof is the neighborhood grocer, run by Hiro’s aunt and uncle, the source of our amazing meals. Our offices are on the second floor. So as you can see, my commute is not too bad, in a land where people spend more than an hour getting to and from their offices every day.

Of course, 2 minutes of walking a day is just not enough to justify the mountain of delicious food I get to consume thanks to the kitchen below our office. Now you know why I’m worried about gaining weight!
