I found two interesting people today. Actually one was an old Japanese guy who started talking to me while I was trying to get some peace and quiet at Meiji Jingu in Harajuku. And he wasn’t very interesting.

The second guy I met found me instead of me finding him like the goal suggests, but anyway, he was much more interesing than the old guy. The interesting guy was a chef from Norway called Eirind.

I was minding my own business just practising some pool when a guy around my height wearing big pointy shoes and a strange but cool suit walked up to me. Instead of giving him my ‘fuck off’ face I shook his hand and we played pool together. I’m really glad I didn’t give him my ‘fuck off’ face because Eirind was a really cool, down-to-earth guy. We drank beer and shot pool. We laughed at his stories of him losing his credit card in a bar in Shinjkuku on his very first day in Japan. We talked about Norway’s fishing industry which exports a hell of a lot of ‘uni’ to Japan. I forgot what uni is. Fucking popular though. In the end, I took him to Womb, a sweet club in Shibuya, where 2 many DJs where playing. I couldn’t go as I’m not on holiday like he is and I have to go to work tomorrow. Shit. We exchanged e-mail addresss, I told him where the love hotels were, and we bid each other farewell.

Hope to see you again mate.

I owe you two beers.
