Hirayama Practice:

A portal,
Where you live

Instructions on

1. Tools

Sign up for “Adopt Your Spot”
at sanitation foundation.
You get the tools you need,
like a grabber and trash bags, for free.

2. When to clean

suggestion: 7 am

I recommend going out early in the morning,
around 6:45 or 7 a.m.
The streets are more quiet.

3. How to Clean

Don’t try to clean the whole area.
Just focus on your step and pick one at a time.
Clean as much as you can, and as much as you want.

4. How to Continue

Start small.

You can do this once or twice a week.
If you enjoy it, come back more.
It is like workout.
You wouldn’t start squatting 225 lbs on your first day.

I go to the street on
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday,
sometimes on Saturday too.
I usually spend 1 hour which fills the 30 gallons bag, and it is only a block.

Find a rhythm you can sustain.
This is not an event. It is a practice.

5. How to Play

I say hello to people I see again.
They’ll start saying hello too
Some people say thank you.
A local coffee shop, Park at Kims,
once gave me a cup of coffee
and they also clean the street.
