Marie! What have you been up to? Every time I go to Gifu city, I lament your absence, because you probably knew where the post office was. I may have met one of your students, but probably not. I was trying to find the post office, and I was talking on the phone in English when an old lady jumped into my conversation and offered to show me the way. She said she spoke English because she was a student at Nova, and I mentioned you and she said she had had a teacher with red hair. Could have been you. Did you have any old ladies?
Haha, I do in fact know where the post office is. I actually have a friend who lives close by there...
At Rio the majority of my students were little old ladies so that doesn't narrow it down, but if she was in Gifu city it might have been a student I taught once or twice at the Gifu NOVA branch. Who knows. But jumping out at you because you were speaking English sounds an awful lot like Reiko Tsubochi... she just loved practicing her English with any unsuspecting foreigner she could find.
