This week's fika: Shiroi Koibito and apple tea
Hello. I'm Kawashima, an engineer who has completed writing an interview article and is accelerating respect for writers in the world. Transcription is very difficult, isn't it?
Every week at our company, we have a snack called “Fica” that is open to the public.
Like the Swedish custom of taking coffee breaks with colleagues during work, members in a shared office gather loosely at that time to pick out chopsticks and sweets.
( If you want to learn more about Fica, check out this article. Takasaki, our representative, explains the background of the initiative.)
I will share such a scene with you this week.
introduction to the old man

This week's Fica snack was the classic Hokkaido souvenir "White Lover."
Tas Cafe and Apartment Hotel Tastoco Mr. Iwama, the owner of a hotel, said he had received it from guests who stayed in Tokyo and may have enjoyed the scenery of Hokkaido before he stayed here:)
And on this day, the drinks are gorgeous.
Mr. Takahashi, a cameraman who is a share office member of the group, has an organic apple iced tea that she admires
It is a high-grade green tea called organic white folding by our representative Takasaki.

It's about time for summer, so you can enjoy a delicious drink.
and i talked about this.
On this day, the photographer Takahashi started talking with a Swiss contemporary artist who says he is involved in his work now and talked about everyday life and art.
The owner, Mr. Iwama, is an architect and our art director, Sato, comes from Bidaiin and Takasaki has a deep background in filmmaking... While there are members who have a high interest in art, I feel the distance between everyday life and art as much as going to see museums where I travel and exhibitions of my favorite artists.
In Japan, there are not many people who buy paintings or decorate their homes,” he said.
It is an old Japanese house with a veranda, but in the first place there was quite little wall area where you could decorate things. Of course, shoji and moss are impossible, sand walls are not suitable for decorating paintings, the only empty space of hallways seems to be dim, and almost no place seemed good for painting (Instead, there were hanging scrolls, I have never heard who drew it ...).
Now that I'm out of the house, there is no nailing on a narrow wall for rent and if you can decorate it with small postcards.
If I had lived somewhere in my house with paintings, I was wondering if it would have been closer to art now.
