The family and friends are the big reason why we wanted to go back to Japan every so often. We have met so many family menbers and friends in this 3 month stay in Japan. Also, we met a few cool people that we could be good friends with if we stay longer. I am hoping that we will keep in touch with each other till the next time we meet. Our only reget is that we could not meet our good friend Akira & Eriko and thier daughter Ayano since we escaped from the earth quake in Tokyo.
Dear Shelley, I hope this message finds you well.
ReplyDeleteThis is my attempt to find out if you might have any news about Mrs. Keiko Miyahara.
I am Ibis from Serbia, and for several years, Keiko-san and I have been practicing English conversation and spent meaningful time conversing over the years. The last time we had a joint lesson was in October 2024, when I made a break from tutoring. Since I haven't had the opportunity to be in daily contact with Keiko-san, I sent a message to her email address a few months ago to check how she is doing, but unfortunately, without a response. I found your blog and it gave me a tiny spec of hope that I might learn something about dear Keiko-san.
P.S. If this message reaches someone who can help, do not hesitate to write to spinningbird@gmail.com. It will mean a world to me.
P.P.S. The company's policy is such that under no circumstances can they provide information about any of the students, no matter what.
Thank you wholeheartedly,
Ibis from Serbia
