I sometimes say stupid things...kakainis!

I realized I've been doing too much (online & window) shopping when I had this conversation with a hotel staff I was training in Tokyo. She was very pretty (Caucasian), has very nice natural curls and speaks fluent Japanese (she's married to a local).

Me: You are American or European?
Trainee: European. I am Bulgarian.
Me: Oh from BVLGARI!

She smiled and nodded politely.

As soon as I realized what I've just said, I went to look for any box my head could fit in.

I didn't find any.

(I could use this crocodile next time....)

Ouch!
