Day 83, Missoula Rabble, Yuriko


Missoula Rabble, Yuriko moved here 11 years ago from Hokkaido, Japan. She knew very little English. "I knew enough to communicate," she told me. Yuriko's first and only job in Missoula has been at Sushi Hana. She started as a dishwasher and is now the head sushi chef. "I like making sushi so that's why I keep doing it." Straightforward enough. She told me she also likes working there because of the people. "They're fun to be around," she said. "They are real, honest people."
