[ Dec.2008 ] The man on the left of this photo is Sala.
The agency which arranged our tour was an office run by some Japanese people, but the actual driver who took us around was him, a local man.
He did not speak English and we communicated with him by my friend’s dictionary with a lot of drawings so that we could point out what we want to say to him.
But without understanding language, we could feel his cheerful and kind character.
Because of that, we could travel relaxed, without any stress.
Only thing was that when he did not understand what we said, he asked us “ah–?”, which was a bit coarse.
