Meet the World - aka i'm bragging, sorry, not sorry.

Today I got a day off cafe work to hang out with Junior High School students, as part of an English Language practice day.
One girl was too cool for English class, and refused to say anything, but she slily sidled up to me and said: "you have cute hair".

Anyway, I'm taking a 'gap yah' in Japan so henceforth this blog will document the trials and tribulations of a gaijin barista in Japan.

Hope you have fun and hilarity time when my adventures read.
