In this episode, Jamaica-born and Toronto-raised restaurant owner Dexter Greenwood shared about the road that brought him to Japan. He described the process of visiting Japan for the first time, returning to Canada (where he gained experience in the broadcasting world), and ultimately determining life in a small town in Gunma prefecture was right for him. Dexter runs two seasonal restaurants (one in spring/summer/autumn and one in winter), and he shared advice about the restaurant business, working in Japan, and language learning.
