Throughout these five rounds, the participants shared pieces of their everyday lives through light and friendly conversations.It began with fun and unexpected topics like horseshoe crabs and maps, and naturally moved into reflections on daily habits, memories, and the passage of time. A recurring theme was the contrast between the old and the new — how life has changed after retirement,how people rely on GPS and self-driving cars instead of reading maps,and how expectations during trips or outings sometimes don’t match reality. They also talked about cleaning air conditioners, taking turns in community roles, getting haircuts,and enjoying casual meals at favorite cafés or restaurants — small but very human details of daily life in Japan. Later, the discussions touched on modern lifestyles, like using libraries instead of bookstores,buying e-books, or visiting super sento instead of traditional bathhouses.Through these stories, a warm sense of nostalgia and appreciation for simple pleasures came through. Altogether, these conversations paint a gentle and heartwarming picture of everyday Japanese life —honest, humorous, and filled with quiet joy.
