Hi my name is Derek and I am finding it hard to make Japanese friends in Vancouver. I am a Canadian Chinese guy born in a city called New Westminster. I worked in Kumamoto City for 1 year teaching English to Japanese children. I hope that we can go to movies, hockey games or have a simple meal together. I have been all over Japan including Naha, Sapporo, Ibuski, Gifu, Saitama, Nagano, Hiroshima, Nagoya, Tokyo, Takamatsu and more.
