In high school I studied karate and kendo, and a stronger interest developed. But I never thought to visit Japan, and I never imagined that it would one day be my home.

I'm writing while sitting on the Yamanote train headed to Tokyo station, the next stop is Akihabara. I am looking forward to getting a sandwich at the Dean and Deluca store at Tokyo station, and maybe a chocolate gelato as well... Funny where life can take you.

You never thought to visit Japan when you were in highschool. and you're teaching in Japan now. Nobody can tell what will happen in our life. And It likely happen that you'll be a leader of Chinese democracy movement. Who can tell? lol
