Thank you for your prayers. After an overnight stay at a hotel in Osaka, I arrived in good shape at the Kochi Ryoma airport around 12:00 noon on Oct. 3, 2006. By God’s grace, I arrived fine with my more than 30 kg baggage (including my hand carry baggage) . Too bad that the pack of goldilocks polvoron and chocnut just had to go at the NAIA airport because they won’t allow any more than 10 kg hand carry baggage. :)
Expectedly, I was met by my adviser Dr. Yoshinori Morooka. After almost an hour drive, we arrived at Kochi University Asakura campus, which is to be my home for some six months or so. For the record, my first activity was to seat-in in my adviser’s “Development Economics” undergraduate class. I knew my adviser was introducing himself and explaining the course curriculum to his students, but I only understood a word or two. A single fact dawned on me: I am going to be a student in Japan, and my first mission is to learn Nihongo.
In Kochi,
Che
