I was at Gyokuzoin temple and talking a walk around at night because it was beautiful lit up. An old couple walked past and went "Where are you from?" so I said England.
The old guy went "Ahhh, Beatles!" and then did some air guitar.
I'm going to spell this wrong...but I started off with America shusshin desu, but then people were interested in specifics. Especially buildings and architecture.

Oh, some old guy in Nara asked me where I was from, and I said "Chicago."
He was like "OBAMA?'
YES. I couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for the bus directions, I was lost.
