19.I’m a tourist guide: I work with groups of Japanese people on vacation around the world.
20.Oh I see! No, it’s just the way you were talking about “clients”-
21.it kind of gives the impression that you’re, like, some kind of geisha, if you see what I mean.

23. But really-here I am, asking you for an English lesson one minute after meeting you again .You must forgive me.
24.Hey, that’s alright, Aiko. That’s what teachers are for, giving people lessons.
