The maroon-colored Hankyu train. The velvet seats, the soft lights, the rhythm of the ride—it all takes me back to my high school and university days.This charming train connects Osaka, Hyogo, and Kyoto, and is a favorite among tourists heading to Kyoto’s famous spots. (Me? I’m not really a Kyoto fan—but that’s a story for another time.)For me, the Hankyu line was more than transportation. It was a safe space where I read borrowed books, faced big life decisions, and quietly figured out how to stand on my own.In this episode, I talk about why I still think Hankyu is the best train company in the world, how it shaped my early adulthood, and why I believe reading books—especially during uncertain times—can be a form of quiet strength.You can find the script for this episode from my bio.If you're just another human, not AI, and you notice any unnatural phrases or pronunciations, please let me know!
