The Challenging Journey to Tokyo

The English language with poor pronunciation by airport staff made me even more frustrated. I was reluctant to come to this country in the first place. However, Satoshi-san sent me an honorable invitation to the Asian Arts and Culture Congress, which required my presence. Otherwise, I would be seen as not appreciating the good relationship between our countries. The spring breeze gently blew through my hair as I arrived in Tokyo. The welcoming coolness of the city greeted me warmly. An airport limousine approached, opened its doors, and took me to Tobu Levant in Sumida-ku. The suburban area was reached in just an hour and a half. I felt a bit queasy, like a country bumpkin who suddenly became an art ambassador representing my nation. I wasn't really prepared for this journey.
