Let's enjoy stay & wine

I’ll be back

My blog is stopped, because I got sickness.But it is getting better, and I’ll restart updating my blog soon.I hope you back to read my diary. 病気療養のためブログをお休みしていました。回復しておりますので近々再開いたします。これからもよろしくお願いします。

Thank you for reading so far. I think that each person has a painful experience, but I think it is important how to convert it into their own energy. I hope this experience helps someone. By the way, I will challenge various things from now on. First of all, I would like to convey the Japanese liquor culture to the world. I would like to publish sake, Japanese wine, and local dishes from each…

There are customs that are common in workplaces that do not tolerate failure. That is, if they are rigorously instructed, they will be strict with their juniors. I think that such an organization blames mistakes and prevents them from happening again. By doing this, clumsy types like me will escape, and inevitably it will become an organization with few mistakes. But I don’t want to see anyone…

It was a frustrating life, but I learned a lot. There is something I am conscious of first to be positive and then to affirm the life I have lived. It is to think that “escape is not a bad thing”. I used to think that it was not good to quit halfway through, but I became a member of society and ran away and was depressed. However, if I hadn’t escaped at that time, I might have been more…

I learned from this experience and seriously thought about how to move in the right direction. First of all, I decided to take the time to find a job. Based on my experience so far, I also decided to identify the company. Then, I focused on the hotel industry, which has relatively better working conditions than the food and beverage industry. I seriously thought about what was the happiest thing…

After all, I worked at this coffee chain store for about 4 years. During this time, I had a lot of good bosses and disagreeable bosses, but I learned a lot from them. From this blog, it’s about my late 20s. I want to get out of this negative spiral and decide to change jobs. But hell is still going on. With this change of job, I got a job at an Italian restaurant. There is no violence here.…

One day, when I went to work late shift, when I saw the condition of the store, I was surprised that nothing was done. My boss is in charge of the early shift. In that situation, I took over without any information. What happened? I heard. He said just one word, it was busy. We will take over the work of the early shift and also handle the work of the late shift. Do nearly twice as much work as…

The restaurant I joined was working 6 days a week and 17 hours a day. I wish I had quit immediately, but at that time I was overconfident that I could do it with a little effort. In addition to this working time, it was an environment where mistakes could not be tolerated. When I made a mistake, I was skipped meals and beaten and kicked by my boss. I will quit this job for half a year in a…

Enrolled in a hotel school. My first time in Tokyo, my first part-time job. Shy and little self-assertion, I struggle with my first customer service job. However, I will do my best because I wanted to overcome this personality. No, I will do my best a little too much. There was a system where I went to school while working while living in the dormitory of a part-time job company, and I used this…

After studying hard, I entered a high school that is about two ranks higher than my ability. The reality I’ve been waiting for is that I can’t keep up with the class anyway. Everyone around me is better than me. And practice of kendo which is stricter than junior high school. More and more I cannot keep up with the class. People who realized that they couldn’t keep up with the class would quit…

Normally, admission to junior high school is full of dreams and hopes. However, as a negative person, I was almost worried I could not keep up with the class, cannot make friends, and scared of strict teacher. Moreover, for some reason, the club activity is indispensable. I was worried and had to join club activities, so I didn’t like it even before I entered school. I had such feelings before I…

I was born in a mediocre family, but I grew up without any inconvenience. Not many, but I also had friends. I was such a shy boy with little self-assertion. And when I was 10 years old, I started playing soccer. It was just around the time when Japan made its first appearance in the France World Cup and the soccer boom was coming. Most of my friends joined the soccer club, and I joined as…

It’s been over two months since I started this blog. I am always grateful to those who are always watching. I thought I didn’t write much about myself. This series will tell the story of my past. Looking back on my life, I feel that there have been many things. I’m sure everyone will feel that way. I never felt it was good at that time. Am I the best now? Not really. I was very negative in…

The King Grapes in South Italy

From this time, I will write articles unique to sommeliers on an irregular basis. There are more than 2000 indigenous grape varieties in Italy. There are various types of grapes, such as famous grapes and rare and lesser-known grapes, but I would like to introduce them little by little. The grape I’m introducing this time is a black grape called “Aglianico”. If you like wine, you may know it,…

I think that many Japanese sommeliers are not very good at Italian wine. I think there are various reasons for that. First of all, textbooks and reference books. Many texts are based on France. Each region of France is covered and you can study all over. Other countries will also study the world’s wines with reference to France. Italy, on the other hand, is often grouped with ”other country”.…

Slapsticks in Rome⑧ ~Epilogue~

It was a slapstick day, but how was it? There were various happenings, but I enjoyed them a lot. This kind of trip gives vitality to everyday life. Thanks to this trip, I was able to do my best to study the sommelier. I hope that the days when Corona will end soon and we can travel with safety will come. By the way, there are also Milan and Venice editions, so please look forward to…

Slapsticks in Rome⑦ ~The super hospitality again~

However, in this situation, the area around the stadium is crowded with people. All the taxis that pass are occupied. I can’t catch a taxi. However, I’ve had a lot of luck in my life so far. When I’m wondering what to do, there is a taxi which is the customer getting off in front of me! How lucky I am! I took a taxi immediately. The driver this time was quieter than before. I told him where I…
