Dear Andera

Dear Andrea Carlson,

 

 Hello! My name is Masako Matsuo. I am from Nagoya City in Aichi Prefecture. Nagoya is a very busy City. I live in Nakagawa ward, and there is much traffic there everyday. But during the spring season the area becomes very beautiful with the cherry trees in Arakogawa Koen. Nakagawa is about 90 minutes from Koryo. We live near a river. It’s not particularly beautiful. I like to go do fireworks with my friends in summer. It’s very, very fun!

 

There are four people in my family. My mother, Sueko, works as a part-timer.

She is from Okinawa!! My sister, Kaoru, is 28 years old. She was married 8 years ago. She lives in Minato ward now. My sister Makiko, is 18 years old. I’m 18 years old too. We are twins! She is a care worker, and she is taking care of old people.

 

In my free time I like to go shopping. I often go to PARCO in Sakae. And in my free time I am fond of reading magazine,

 

Warm regards,

 

 

Masako Matsuo

 

Oh!! My hometown!

My hometown, Nagoya, an active place place to live for three reasons.

First, Nagoya is a very developed city. There is heavy traffic every day.

There is a national highway in front of my house, so always noisy of the car.

Second, my hometown is convenient. There are supermarkets and a station, a bus stop, and also a convenient shopping mall. So I can always go there!

Third, there are lots of things to do in Nagoya. In there is an aquarium and an amusement park. In the city centre there is a zoo too. When I was child, I often went there. But I still sometimes go to there when I have time. The zoo is now changing the animals' living quarters to make it easier for then to live.

In addition, Nagoya famous food is misokatsu and kishimen. The tourist is popularity.

I like this hometown! It is a hometown of the pride. I hope you come to this town sometimes.
