Looking back the last month...
Star Wars Celebration6 was so great!
I've been thinking about overseas recently since I came back from Florida.
That experience remind me that I really like adventure...
It is wonderful thing to visit other country and watch the world.
(this pic is when I were working at toronto's restaurant)
If there is an offer of work by
events from the foreign countries....
I will participate positively!
but I know I have a work in Osaka so,
short-term only...for now.
because there were a lot of places that we have not seen.
Those REGO's were outstanding!
There were a lot of huge wallpaper..
When we walk around, we run into the Mr.James Arnold Taylor
who works as a voice actor of Clone Wars of Obi-wan!
After the gate open,
We were very busy at our booth as usual.
We enjoyed talking to people and
very happy to show what we were making.
as the final day...
Still There was a person who really wanted to meet.
Her name is Mary, from LFL. .
I'm sure she was the most busiest person in Celebration.

Speaking about vegetable,
