令和二年、元旦を迎えました。さて、今年はどんな年になるのでしょうか。地球規模の気候変動は不安です。また私の住む地域は高齢化と人口減少が深刻です。故郷に帰って実家でカフェを開き、地域の人々と交わりながらゆっくりと日々を過ごしていますが、自分なりにできることを考えていきたいと思います。今年もどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。New Year of 2020 has just begun. Well, what will the new year bring? Global climate change is a very serious concern. Aging and depopulation has been a serious problem in my region. Going back to my hometown, I opened a cafe at an old Japanese house where I was born and grew up in until 18 and now I am living a relaxed life connecting with local people and friends. I would like to think about what I can do for others here and for my family who are in the US and Europe. Have a Happy New Year!
