OK. OK. I'm back here with Kanade.
Yes.
So, Kanade, why don't you talk about where you're from!
OK. I'm from Akita, which is Northern Japan. And there is a lot of
mountains and you can see changing color in the fall and in my home
Yashima town, there are only six thousand people in there and
there is a waterfall called "Hotonedake", which is the best one hundred
fall in Japan.
wow! That's cool.
Yeah, Cool!
So you've seen it.
Yes!
So how high is this amazing waterfall?
Uh, I don't really know. It's really big.
Really. So is it famous because it's really tall or cause it's really wide?
Could be both.
Oh, really, that's a big waterfall.
OK. When is the last time you went home?
Ah, last week.
Uh-huh. Really! Both you're parents still live there?
Yes.
OK. And were your parents born there?
Yes, but different town. My father is from Yashima, same hometown, same home as
my home, but my mom is from Nigaho, next town from Yashima.
Oh, OK. Do you have a lot of childhood memories.
Yes, uh, actually but my dad was really busy, so my mom took me,
took me many, many places...as a child.
Oh, that's sweet. Well, you're a good daughter.
I think, I think so. Yeah!
OK. Thanks a lot.
