Recently, I don't often go to Osaka... no reason to go there these days. But on the odd occasion when I do go, I like to head over to Sky Building. The area is changing. There is a lot going on in Osaka.
I have been teaching English as a second language for over 20 years in Japan and Canada. What keeps me in Japan is the love of its culture, which constantly surprises me. I am also fascinated with "alternative travel", or "travel off the beaten path". Ferries and trains are my mode of choice... airplane for convenience.
