STARBUCKS

Where is your relaxing space?

When I want to think about myself, life and future, I go to 

STARBUCKS

This is the first Starbucks in Seattle.

Starbucks was established in 1912 by three men. 

Now, we can find the shops everywhere.

Why does Starbucks make people feel comfortable?

Because there are love, smile and 
clerks who think about customers as much as they can.

One of my important friends is working at Starbucks.
She said she started working there to improve her weakness.
When we talk about our part-time jobs, 
she always talks about things she learned through her work.

To work there is much harder than people think.

Clerks always think about customers and keep thinking how to make people happy.



 That is the reason people go there and relax themselves.
People feel comfortable being there, and continue going there.

Which drink is your favorite?
Have a cup of coffee there, and have a nice day.

The Real Sky in Fukushima

ほんとうの空(The Real Sky) is in Fukushima

My hometown Fukushima is now famous for radiation.

To be honest, it is too dangerous to live there.

However, people continue living there including my family

because they and I love my city.

[photo from my house]

The photo was taken last summer.

This is the sky in Fukushima.

Can you see the children in this photo?

They are junior high school students in Fukushima city.

When I held my camera and saw this view from the lens, 

I got two feeling. One is happiness, and the other is worry.

It is complex, really.

It is glad to see people laughing and playing tennis under the blue sky like the same as before the earthquake, but at the same time, I feel there is fat worries in my heart. 

Is it really safe playing tennis outside?

 Actually, nobody can tell me. 

Actually, nobody knows the answer.

This week, I am going back to Fukushima to see my family and friends.

It has been more than five months since I went there last time. 

I am so excited to play tennis with my team mates in Fukushima.

It is scary to see what is going to happen in the future but

all i can do is to move for my city.

If I give up, it is end of everything.

Sky is the limit.

I will move until Fukushima gets the real sky again.
