Yesterday I attended a Smith’s seminar at the Smith’s head office in Osaka. It was great to see fellow franchisees there and talk with them. As always, I had a great time and learned very interesting things from Mark Smith. He really cares about our success. Mark, who is already a very successful foreigner in Japan, wants all Smith’s franchisees to be very successful too. I think that is a very good thing. Thank you very much Mark! I appreciate your support!
After the Smith’s seminar, I and some other franchisees went to a restaurant together and had a great time! We agreed to hold an event together at Osaka Castle Park in Osaka in spring (a hanami party http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanami). We will all bring some students from our schools! I think it will be a great opportunity for my students to meet other foreigners and practice their English skills! I’m looking forward to it!
