- to Los Angeles -

I spend the last train ride slowly, slowly, slowly, thinking about what have led me to this present moment.

この現在に導いてくれたものを想いながら、ゆっくり、ゆっくり、最後の電車移動。






- Los Angeles  ロサンゼルス -

Terminal station.

終着駅。




For example, the world seen by an office worker and a student is completely different. There is more influential things than physical location.

例えば会社員と学生で見える世界は全く違う。物理的な位置よりもっと重要なことがある。






- UCLA -

I was a genuine student as I had not been frustrated by being a student.

学生であることに苛立ちを感じない。僕は生粋の学生だった。




Maybe it's the homeless who know the city better than anyone else. They would find a stone even about 30 cm in diameter in a second.

誰よりも街を知っているのはホームレスかも。直径30cmの石くらい、すぐに見つけてくれそう。




Teriyaki chicken bowl at YOSHINOYA. I don't miss it, but it relaxed my body a little.

YOSHINOYAでテリヤキチキンボウル。懐かしくはないけど、少し身体が落ち着いた。




Shooting a car chase in Hollywood. I don't feel that it is extraordinary because there is no everyday life for me here.

ハリウッドでカーチェイスのロケ。 非日常と感じないのは、ここに僕の日常はないから。




Ah, so much, summer.

あぁ、すごく、夏。




Everyone has something hidden.

秘めている、誰もが何かを。




A colorless sunset time, mixed with a sense of undoing and okay.

やり残し感と、まぁいいか、混ざって無色の夕方。




I said "Thank you very much" and she said "You are very welcome", with a big smile.

Thank you very muchと言ったら、You are very welcomeと返ってきた。大きな笑顔つきで。




The joy of returning home can only be obtained by going out.

帰る喜びは、出かけないと得られない。




Just a 10-hour flight will make this place the other side of the ocean.

たった10時間飛ぶだけで、此処が対岸になる。
