Umm...a conversation that I had which, I guess in retrospect was very important to me, was a conversation I had with a doctor in hospital in, I suppose it must've been 2003 in London. I had some quite serious medical problems, including a kind of heart condition, and I think around that time I had just broken up with my long-term girlfriend, and so I was feeling a little bit upset and I wasn't quite sure where to go in life. And so, although I was talking to the doctor about my health problems we kind of ended up talking about me, and what I was going to do next. And in the end she advised me to come to Japan, so I think this conversation was important for lots of different reasons, I think at that time I was working in a job that I didn't enjoy so much and so I think if I hadn't had that conversation I might not have decided to start teaching English, and I definitely think I wouldn't have decided to come to Japan, which has been one of the better decision that I made in my life, as living in Japan has provided me an opportunity to meet people from around the world and to make a large number of friends so I think this conversation was important for reasons connected to my carreer and reasons connected to my life in general, so I really think my life would have been very different if I hadn't had this conversation, and actually I don't know the name of the doctor who I spoke to, so I always feel a little bit bad about that.
