Of course, I love my hometown and the beautiful sights of Japan, but my favorite place in Japan is probably this place... Convenience stores!

Do you know how wonderful convenience stores are in Japan? Not only do they have a wide selection of rice balls, sandwiches, and drinks, but they also have bento boxes and sweets that make you want to stop by. In addition, you can make copies, print photos, pay utility bills, buy tickets, mail packages, and many other useful functions.

Even though I already had two part-time jobs when I was a student, I started working at convenience stores as my third job because I love it so much. I enjoyed working at the convenience store to the fullest, from the perfect display, to the super quick bagging, to making fried chicken and oden, to remember which the regular customers favorite tobacco.

When I go back to Japan, the convenience store might be the first place I go.
