Welcome!

宿泊先で薦められたお寿司屋に来ました。

Hakodate is famous for its fresh sushi.

大将、面白い。

The dude running our sharehouse recommended we try this place, which turned out to be pretty awesome.

待ち切れない。

Chef, what do you recommend?

私も。

All of it.

America

I live in Tokyo now.

We're from Nagoya in Aichi.

Oh, Nagoya?

How are you liking Hakodate?

It's been fun.

Oh, that's good!

It's pretty, but it's cold!

It's cold because you came from Nagoya.

Yep.

Do you speak English?

(In English) No.

This guy's funny.

What a funny dude.

Is it okay to film up close?

Sure!

I was on TV a little while ago.

Oh, really?!

So I'm already used to it.

You sound like a natural.

Already used to it.
