Along his route he sometimes stops to observe the plants above him, taking photos of the foliage, or has a snack at some diner. And every now and then he has some encounters: with Takashi, the boy who takes over the afternoon shift of cleaning the bathrooms, with a girl in the park, with a homeless man disconnected from reality, with the owner of a restaurant who gives him small preferential treatments...
