NAGOYA INTERNATIONAL CENTER, NAGOYA, JAPAN / 7 minutes left of my expensive internet

Alas I haven't had time to upload photos and entries on my trip to Shimoda and Takayama but they will come soon hopefully.

I have made 2 new friends. One was a very lovely bus companion (Miyuki) on the 5.5 hour journey from Shinjuku to Takayama. The other, I just made about half an hour ago. I was wandering about LOFT in the wicked Nadya Park (more on this later) when this guy hands something to me. Being greedy for free tissues, I thought it was another pack so I took it. He then motions me to this `Fill In The Form` area and I had to explain that it will take me about 3 hours to understand what the form is asking. So we start chatting and turns out one of his Aussie friends is doing some JET programme-related thing in Nagoya. So now I also have Satoshi's meshi (business card) - yay for friendly peeps! I felt a bit bad as I kept him from his work for a solid 15 minutes. WHOOPS!
