Daily life in Fuk
It's amazing how when I was first transferred to work in Fukuoka, I felt sort of lonely and out-of-touch with my English-speaking colleagues back in Osaka.Now, nearly 2 months have gone by, and I was told that I will be transferring to the Tokyo branch in mid-Dec.
Feeling? Sort of reluctant to move now, considering I have accustomed to Fuk's way of living and working, and the office colleagues, the lunch talks..the apartment I am living in, my neighbourhood, my neighbours, my neighbours' gardens, people I see everyday on the train, people I see on the way walking to the train station every morning, which supermarket sells cheaper food than which, and if one sells cheaper raw food doesn't mean it sells cheaper fruits and bakery.... the list is endless....
Not to mention the train is pack in the morning with people rushing to work (yeah, my office is strategically right in the middle of the city where everyone works too) -- see above pic.
Oh my god.. I cannot imagine in Tokyo!!! I will be definitely squash by human stampede!
These are photos of my neighbourhood and what I see everyday
(For Mark)
Those orange hanging bits in the above pic are my neighbours' garden-grown persimmons. Yeah.. they hang them dry. Now I know how my favourite dried fruit is preserved.
