[Work location] Aichi Prefecture

【Occupation】 Scaffolding Construction

After serving in the military in Vietnam, I came to Japan through an introduction from my cousin. I was confident in my physical strength, but my first job as a scaffolder was tough. However, everyone was kind and taught me, so I was able to get used to the work quickly. Now I live in company housing with my Vietnamese seniors and juniors, and I have lively and fun days.

My colleagues are all very kind. Recently, the company bought a billiard table for us, and we've all been enjoying playing. These kinds of memories are a great source of motivation for me at work.

On my days off, I spend my time sightseeing and shopping around Aichi Prefecture.
I like sushi and yakiniku, and I especially love Japanese draft beer; it's delicious.

I hope to marry a Japanese woman someday and live in Japan for as long as possible.
