My height estimate was only a guess... :sweat:
yeah, it is funny, when you buy something and they break out the japanese on you, and i reply in english, guess when you are asian, even chinese, we tend to blend in, should have seen me in Japan, they probably thought i was weird holding a phrase book and trying speak very broken nihon-go with them asking for directions, atleast i tried. :hehe:
I don't mind one bit... Nice to know that I can pass as Japanese. :mrgreen:
The checkout women at Asahiya always speak Japanese to me, so I nod politely and say "arigato" and no one's the wiser. :hehe:
