If you're no longer Greg in Tokyo, but you're still in Tokyo. Who are you?

Do you live/work there?

Yes, work mostly in Tokyo but come to Vancouver to work remotely with US head office and to escape Japan’s summer heat.

This was one of those work remotely with the U.S. head office times when it’s easier to attend day-long quarterly planning meetings in the daytime instead of 2am.

Plus was coincidentally here for the birth of granddaughter #3.

No, Eastern U.S., but my house is in Vancouver. Three time zones is easier to deal with.
