Actually ,we were extremely busy as we had to move house twice.It was from Kamakura to our house in Hyogo prefecture which we had left 9 years ago and from there to Singapore here.We lived with many boxes for 1 month!!
Now,since I'm here and not in Japan, I shall continue to write about my nostalgic memories and thoughts about our homeland through the title of my blog is 'MY REAL JAPAN'
While In Japan, it was most fun for me to have shown our Japanese culture to the foreigners who were either travelling or living in Japan temporarily.The experiences that I had when we were living in Singapore from 2004 to 2009,has taught me how the foreigners feel and think about our unique culture.I've cooked varieties of the Japanese food so many times for my diffrent races of firends like the Chinese, Indians Malays ,Philippines , Koreans Tiwanise British ,German ,Americans , Brazilian ,the Vietnamese and theThais mainly here in Singapore, Japan and UK ..And they also served me their food then slowly,I got to know what kinds of food will they consume and what were their preferences.I also realised that the Japanese like sticky food like the Nato and Mochi compared to the people in other countries.Now I think that we love that too much and that's why we have a tendency to do the same things at the same time!
