Welcome to the highs and lows of living in Asahi, Nyu-gun, a small and strange town nestled in the mountains of western Japan. Dare you read what thrilling adventures will befall....AN ENGLISHMAN IN NYU-GUN!!!
In 2004, a few years after university, I decided to sign up for the JET programme, and I became an assistant English teacher in Fukui, a prefecture on the west coast of Japan. I taught there for two years before returning to London, where I now work in publishing.
I saw some cracking examples of Engrish on my recent trip up to Sapporo. As a simple human being, these comical grammatical errors are one of my main pleasures in Japan; but as an English teacher, I'm weeping inside.
