Remote Work, Chance Encounters, and Hometown Comfort

You can hear the voice recording for the diary.

 

今日は新しい会社で初めてのリモートワーク。前職では捗らなかったけど少し不安も。

This was my first time working from home since joining my current company. I was a bit worried about my performance because I struggled to focus at my previous job.

 

しかし新しいシェアオフィスでの作業は快適で、仕事も集中できた。

However, I found my new shared office very comfortable and was able to concentrate well.

 

通勤途中とお昼の散歩で、なんと知り合いと2回も偶然バッタリ。

I even bumped into friends both on my way to the office in the morning and during my lunch break.

 

リモートでもこうして人と繋がれるのは、地元ならではの温かさを感じる。

Seeing them, even while working from home, gave me a warm feeling about my hometown.

 

やっぱり私には東京より、地元のこの距離感が性に合っていると思った。

It just confirmed what I already knew: I prefer living here over Tokyo.

 

 

To be continued.
