Although there have been some evening showers recently, the weather has been stable and sunny, which makes me feel refreshed.
Work in Kochi during the week, and sell at TOYOF in Kobe on weekends.
I'm getting used to this life now.
Many customers come to our store every day and tell us all kinds of stories.
When we chat, the conversation tends to go in different directions.
There are all kinds of people in Kobe.
There's a 70-year-old man in a cool suit and hat who comes every week, a Japanese lady who speaks fluent English, foreigners from Sri Lanka, Germany, America, Australia, and also the guy from the Western restaurant nearby and the lady from the bakery. There are also dogs and cats who obviously live a better life than I do.

Meanwhile, key chains made by toy craftsmen are being exhibited one after another on a weekly basis. Personalization is free.

We also hold workshops from time to time, and offer clock-making classes that everyone from children to adults can enjoy!

This level of quality is possible at just 4 years old. Amazing!!
So, going to Kobe every week is no longer a chore, but has become something I look forward to. Of course, what I look forward to after work is food.

SION is a 3-minute walk from the Kobe store.
This is a restaurant specializing in curry and beef stew made by a chef from the former Oriental Hotel.
At lunchtime, I'll be drenched in sweat here, but for 50 yen I can get a large portion [which will overflow from the plate (lol)], so I can recharge my batteries while enjoying both the quantity and quality.
At night, there are so many delicious restaurants.
