Today my first of several great jobs was to sweep the small street in front of Entoku-in in the Todai-ji temple complex. It was a sunny morning and I loved it. But I really had to hurry (spoiler alert: I still was told off for being to slow). Maybe I shouldn’t have taken these undercover pictures of the street…?

The window of the tea shop really opened my heart this morning – this is the reason why I do this. Working in a beautiful place…
