An Irish friend has just gone to stay with his girlfriend in Kyoto for at least the next 3 months.
His girlfriend is busy with college/exams at the mo, so hes on his lonesome.
Hes been there a week, and taken in some sights.
Hes an interesting and articulate guy:
24, just finished college (astrophysics), swimmer....
If anyone in the Kyoto area is interested in inviting him along for pints some evening or just meeting for a coffee and chat at Starbucks, PM me your email and Ill pass it on to him.
