My Favorite Things
I would like to share three things that I love.
The first one is living alone since I came to Japan. I can sleep whenever I want, use my room freely, and clean whenever I feel like it. I can make all decisions by myself.
The second one is Japanese gyoza, which is very popular in Japan. The fragrance is delightful, and they are reasonably priced. The sauce is a bit sour, and I really like it. I go to eat gyoza two or three times a week, usually after Japanese language classes.
The third one is the scenery in Japan. Japan has a unique landscape where modern and traditional elements blend together. There are skyscrapers and traditional Japanese houses, offering a diverse architectural view. The air is very fresh. When I traveled to Kyoto, the town’s atmosphere felt traditionally Japanese. Meanwhile, neighboring Osaka has many skyscrapers. Japan harmoniously blends traditional landscapes and skyscrapers, giving a peaceful and calm feeling. It’s completely different from Vietnam. Vietnamese cities are lively, but they feel a bit too hectic for me. I love that aspect too.
These are the things I love about Japan. My Japanese is not yet proficient, and there’s still much I don’t know about Japan. I want to study more Japanese, make Japanese friends, and learn more about Japan.
