Ron McFarlandの Personal Journey (2-i) : サンノゼのシェアハウスの仲間たち（４）

さて、サンノゼのシェアハウスの話の続き。

Another person in the R & W House was Tom Tang. He was from Hong Kong, and we were not that close, but one summer a friend of his who was studying in the UK came to visit. His name was Jimmy Chan, also originally from Hong Kong. He went away to a British boarding high school, and then continued on to university and graduate school in mathematics in London. Well, we became the best of friends and are still in contact today, over 40 years later. He now makes his home outside of Toronto, Canada.

Over the years after first meeting in San Jose, I met Jimmy in London in 1972. Then, after he graduated in London, he moved back to Hong Kong. So, I met them there around 1978. After that in around 1980, he came to Japan, and we met here. In 1997, China was to take over Hong Kong from the UK, so he moved to Canada as I mentioned. I have met him twice in Toronto. It is interesting that we have been able to meet in so many places. Speaking of Toronto, he took me to lunch in the Chinese community in Toronto to meet his friends. It was like a little Hong Kong, as so many people from Hong Kong moved there. I felt like I was in a different country and not Canada. I have had quite a global adventure with Jimmy. We share Christmas letters every year even now.

Ronさんのセミナーいかがですか。

皆さんがおやりになっている勉強会などに出張し講演させていただきます。

ただし、Ronさんが住んでいる東京都大田区から日帰りできるところとさせてください。

もっとも台湾でも日帰りは可能ですが。
