"Okinawa" Okinawa by frankcanfly
Okinawa Travel Guide: 402 reviews and 1,015 photos
While living in Japan, I got a part-time job working as a Sushi Chef apprentice. It was an honor to do it, of course I didn`t get paid!!!
I learned a wonderful skill, and continue to enjoy Sushi at home and at restaurants very often.
Please learn how to use `O hashi` (chopsticks). Once you learn, it`s as easy as using your fingers....
Here I am with my best friend in Japan: Shoko-san
Here is my `Meishi`, my name card. If you will be here for more than just a quick visit, have some made!!
OK, who can tell me what it says??!!

I wouldn't have experienced so much of Japanese culture and language if it weren't for the Toyosato's. They took me in... more travel advice

you really have been all over the place! its great that you've had opportunities to live in such excotic locales!
nice pics....you got a meishi card...hahahah.....greetings from japan...
Neat pics! How great that you lived there - it must have been an eye-opening experience.
Great pics....tell us more about this place
An honor to do it for free -- that's the life! Interesting personal page. . .
Got any more good stuff to add ~ I would love to learn more about Okinawa! My daughter still believes proper use of hashi is to "put your hair in a bun" ; )
beach camping...sound nice.
Cool! Looks like you had fun! The great sushi chef :-) Congrats!
