I made a new, old friend yesterday while handing out flyers. We started managing Smith’s Shimokitazawa location (スミス英会話下北沢) 4 years ago. As you can imagine, we have completed numerous flyer runs. Shimokitazawa station (下北沢駅) gets a lot of traffic, but it is still small enough to recognize regulars. One of the regular commuters is a couple who have a young son. Every morning the little boy would shout at us “Good Morning!” in English. We would respond of course, and our daily exchange brought a smile to all those who happened to be nearby.
Yesterday, the boy’s father approached me and asked if I would follow his Twitter account, I agreed and now we follow each other.
So, a new,old friend is made!
