So let’s get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France
After a month, a small series of minuscule—yet glorious!—moments from Sendai:
The warmth of a flannel scarf overpowering the itchiness.
My first attempt at humor in Japanese garnering an honest laugh (not that teenage Japanese girls are the toughest audience, but I’ll take it).
The first time I was called ‘Greg-kun.’
Writing hiragana with comfortable confidence!
Hot vending machine latté on a chilly Sendai morning.
Referring to items more normally in 日本語 than in English.
Bowing gently from my 自転車 (bike) as I am waved past a construction site by a bowing worker with a blinking red baton.
The slow, consistent graduated steps of spoken Japanese from unintelligible mush to beautiful patterns.
