I had the opportunity to work at an event for the “Edo Kaido Project,” promoted by the Kanto District Transport Bureau of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism 😊

It was a fascinating experience where I could feel the unique charm and characteristics of each prefecture in the Kanto region ✨

Through the event that focuses on Japanese culture and traditions, as well as through my daily work as an interpreter, I have once again been reminded of the richness and distinctiveness of Japanese culture 😌

As I follow recent global situation through the media,
I also find myself reflecting on Japan’s position in the world and the nature of Japanese society and people.

These days, people are talking everywhere about when the cherry blossoms will bloom😅 Amid all that, today was a cold and rainy Vernal Equinox Day, and I wrote a blog post about what I’ve been thinking.

If you’re interested, I would be happy if you take a look ✨
