what's that language?

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

St. Catharines, 2010.11.03

Got to the bus stop this morning to catch the train to the city. The first thing I heard was two women speaking Japanese!

In the city I had two successful interviews. I have to say, Toronto looks great! People on the streets, lots of new businesses running, new buildings going in all over the place; all kinds of activity.

Sadly, I saw two delays on the subway. I only got to my second interview with five minutes to spare! I'm spoiled by the amazing transit system in Tokyo, of course.
