A Fast Introduction and a Far Reaching Good-bye
December 2, 2009
Victor Medina, Tokyo Office Intern
Hello, こんにちは、さよなら、and Good-bye.
SHARE blog readers,
My name is Victor Medina and I have had the wonderful pleasure of interning at the SHARE NPO Tokyo office from September of 2009 until December of 2009. My work here has been primarily to aid in the translation into English including the blog, presentations, and also event information, and assist anywhere SHARE’s help is needed. Usually you do not get to hear from me!
Coming from Washington D.C. in the United States of America, and living in Tokyo, Japan has been an amazing experience that has been mostly full of joy, but also some hardships and confusion. I appreciate all things experienced because sometimes the best way to learn is to excel through frustration and confusion.
SHARE NPO afforded me an opportunity of a lifetime to work with them and meet great people who make a difference in peoples’ lives around the world. Saying “Thank You” is not strong enough to show my appreciation and I hope that I was able to return even a small amount of what SHARE has given me.
Today we had a far well party and we enjoyed pizza and Japanese food over entertaining conversations. We reflected on the past months and we talked about my future, what the USA can learn from Japan’s healthcare system while reforming, senior citizen motorcycle gangs, and why New York is called “The Big Apple”. (Apple is an old horse racing term used to describe the prize. Hence Big Apple= Big Prize) =-)
I will miss all of SHARE staff because each person made a different connection. Whether sharing their computer, sharing their knowledge, sharing their food culture and lifestyle, or sharing their hobbies, this organization represents the true essence of the word “SHARE”.
Until next time Tokyo, so long for now. Thank You!!!!
