I spent this week from May 3rd to 7th at my home town, Kochi in Japan.
It had been 1 year and half since my last visit.
I felt at home and new at the same time, which were good feeling.
Kochi is a countryside prefecture.
My house is surrounded by rice fields and mountains, and trains comes once in 30 mins or 1 hour. (So much difference from Tokyo!)
Since last time I came to Kochi, this sign in a train was new.
It shows how to evacuate in case of tsunami.
Kochi is fading ocean and high chance of serious earthquake is been mentioned since I was young.
I felt that sense of safety is really spreading trough Kochi.
I have so much memories, precious people and places in Kochi, and hope sincerely that all of my friends and family and their families will be safe when earthquake happens.
Or I hope that earthquake doesn’t even happen in the first place.
