Interesting observations / 見かけたこと

We don’t know when we can go back to Japan next. But until 2020, we visited our family every year. Sometimes we stayed in our family’s neighborhood in Saitama, sometimes hung out in Tokyo, or travelled in distant areas. We would like to share some interesting observations from those trips with you.

On the Internet, a lot of news, information and opinions are available in Japanese. We don’t try to catch up with all the latest trends, but we are exposed to news and ideas currently popular. We would like to introduce some interesting ones to you, too.

In posting these, we wonder: What kind of society is the Japanese going to form in the future?
