Gardening
I remember when I was a little kid, we gave my grandpa Leo a license plate frame that said, "Grandpa has green thumbs." My grandpa was an amazing gardener to say the least. Well, my mother got the gardening gene from her father and she has passed it down to me. I can't wait to one day have my own house and a garden that I can tend. In Koryama, I'm frequently struck with jealousy when I see some of the "gardens" people have next to their houses. I use the word "garden" loosely because half of them are like small farms. Check out this garden in the middle of town:

Do you remember when in elementary school on a standardized test for you future careers it said that you would be a farmer???? Grandpa would be smiling about your interest in gardening.
I remember and I still think it was probably right. I'm pretty sure I should have been a farmer.
is it a countryside where u r living?
My brother's in Japan, too and he's surrounded by farms and rice fields.
If only you and he were in the same place...
I live in a small city but right around the city is lots of countryside. Where is your brother?
Gunma province, I just moved from Tokyo to this area :D
Hi, Yen! How did you find my blog. One of my new friends is from Gunma. I've heard great things about that area.
long time ago thru an ex-pat website, I read your post everyday. I meant my brother, not me in the previous post. I think it's a nice place, too. :). So which city are you living?
