"drbgaijin"?

Yes it can be difficult to figure it out.
Most people assume "Doctor" and then after that there are various interpretations.

The truth is as follows:

"drb" are the initials for Douglas R. Bruce.

In Japan I found myself seeing lots of things that the Japanese didn't see.
Things that were so everyday and common to them, that they no longer gave them a second thought.
I have taken pictures and videos of umbrella stands/ toilets/ rice balls/ vending machines/ sandwich wrappers/ feet/ earwax spoons/ etc. etc.

In reality it is not so strange that a foreigner in a new country will see things that are considered "everyday" to the local inhabitants. But, here in Japan, I am seeing so many such interesting things that even after 8 years the flood continues to engulf me.

So I decided that I had "Foreigner" eyes.

The correct words for foreigner in Japanese are, "Gai-Koku-Jin" and those words are abbreviated in Japanese slang as "Gai-jin".  (Gai = outside, Koku = Country, Jin = Person).
Thus was born "drbgaijin"!

Here is an MC-created visual explanation about my thoughts on Japan and my Gaijin eyes.
This was also the first time I tried using "Spectramatte".
