Ben’s last day in Tokyo was so packed same as other days. We have been busy to enjoy, learn and experience Japanese culture in Tokyo and Ben started his last day in Ginza and took hours of private Japanese cooking lesson by a very well-know/trained chef, Ishizuka, the owner Ishizuka, as a head chef, found this restaurant after awarding Michelin stars for 5 consecutive years. I was a translator/camera man/guest for him.

I know all Japanese people are jealous of us right now. Getting dressed in Kimono, watching Sumo from a box seats and having Chanko nabe (Sumo wrestler’s stew) for dinner are the highest status as Japanese. These incredible experiences never happened without support from Takanohana stable. Gift box was also amazing! Thanks for this opportunity.

I am spending days with Ben Greenfield in my hometown Tokyo Japan. Since he had a private speaking event yesterday, I visited my old neighbor, Musashikoyama, Shinagawa, Tokyo where I had been living there until 7th grade. My elementray friends came to see me and I met most of them for the first time in two decades!! It made me so nostargic and reminded me of childhood. and…Guess what!? My random visit because of Ben was a sheer chance to come back to the september festival in my old hometown. It had been 20 years since I participated in last time. What a huge surprise! Sunday was the day for me!

Guess who I was with in Tokyo Japan? I spent a week with Ben Greenfield, who is a New York Times Bestselling author, speaker and coach. You can find out who he is on his website and it would be much easier because I cannot explain about everything of his profile. Anyway though, it was my honor to spend time with him because I am a huge fan of him and his podcast. He is definately one of top influencers in fitness, health and wellness industories.
