My Sweet Inaka (Countryside)

When I am in big cities in Japan, I think about how lucky I am to live in a quiet country town. I can't imagine not seeing my students or people I know on the street everytime I go outside! When I was walking back to my apartment after the LONG ride back from Osaka, I saw my neighbor, one of my students grandpa's. He is so friendly and nice, and we walked and talked all the way back to our houses. What a welcome back to my little country town after 4 days in the big city!
