<\/p>\nHello, everyone.<\/p>\n
This is Enta.<\/p>\n
I returned safely from Vietnam the other day, but I'm really exhausted.<\/p>\n
We'll depart for Japan around midnight and arrive around 6:00 a.m.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The sunrise is absolutely beautiful, but I'm still half-asleep.<\/p>\n
I'm sitting here trying to sleep, but I'm not really sure if I'm asleep or not lol<\/p>\n
And that's when work began... It was super tough.<\/p>\n
But that's beside the point.<\/p>\n
I don't think I'll have many opportunities to meet with successful candidates after their interviews under the Foreign Technical Intern Training Program.<\/p>\n
That's because the people in charge at the companies sometimes go back to their home countries or go on vacation? lol<\/p>\n
I think the next time we meet will be after I come to Japan.<\/p>\n
On this occasion, I had the opportunity to meet with the successful candidates and their families.<\/p>\n
Well, it's kind of like a home visit.<\/p>\n
![\"Family\"](\"https:\/\/norimen.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/roujin_family-600x386.png\")
<\/p>\n
I don't think most unions have this, but,<\/p>\n
If your company plans to hire foreign nationals through a trainee program, please be sure to go visit their families!<\/p>\n
I highly recommend it.<\/p>\n
I think it's much more meaningful than just going sightseeing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been talking to various families, and every one of them has high hopes for their son (or daughter)!<\/p>\n
And I\u2019ll also make a request of my family\u2014that they support me so I can give it my all.<\/p>\n
Only two out of four people came to the home visit this time. That\u2019s because the other two lived so far away\u2014it would\u2019ve required a plane ride\u2014so I gave up on them, lol.<\/p>\n
However, the two families I visited lived in pretty rural areas, and it took about two hours each way to get there lol.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I was a little moved to see what real life is like in rural Vietnam.<\/p>\n
Even though I only make about 2 kan a month, they still serve me fruit and things like that.<\/p>\n
Even if there are a few dozen flies swarming around my food, I'll still eat it with a smile!<\/p>\n
![\"Fruit\"](\"https:\/\/norimen.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_2954-600x450.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
That said, it was so delicious that I ended up eating quite a bit lol<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Come to think of it, I just remembered that when I was little, back at my parents' house in Kagoshima, there were always so many flies on the fruit we ate.<\/p>\n
As I ate one after another while swatting away flies with my hand, memories of how delicious they were came flooding back!<\/p>\n
To think that the gesture of swatting a fly would bring that back to mind... We were really broke back then, too, lol.<\/p>\n
There were plenty of unpaved roads in Kagoshima, too, and since there were cows in the neighborhood, there were a lot of flies.<\/p>\n
There was dog poop all over the place back then, and I used to step in it all the time~ lol<\/p>\n
That's what the countryside in Vietnam was like. Does that bring back some old memories?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I asked the successful candidate\u2019s wife all sorts of questions, and she asked me some too; I showed her where we live and the company\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
His wife looked a little lonely, but she told me she\u2019d make sure to see him off. (His mother was away on business.)<\/p>\n
Wow, that was really a great experience.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
At the end, we took a photo together, like a family portrait, but it\u2019s not that I\u2019m tall\u2014it\u2019s just that Vietnamese people are petite.<\/p>\n
I'm 172 cm tall, so please get a sense of my height from the photo.<\/p>\n
But his wife is beautiful!Many Vietnamese girls have fair skin and are cute.<\/span><\/strong><\/span>That's true!<\/p>\n And with that, we even received a souvenir, bringing the first stop to a close.<\/p>\n Tomorrow is the second one, isn't it?<\/p>\n By the way, I went from Japan to Vietnam wearing work clothes and safety shoes. I totally looked like a contractor, lol.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n See you later.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello, everyone. This is Enta.
